Early morning fire reported at Manayunk salon
A fire broke out inside a Manayunk salon on Tuesday morning.
Philadelphia Fire Chief Richard Davis says fire fighters arrived at Fedora Salon and Spa, at 4167 Main Street, just after 1 a.m. to find smoke coming from the first floor.
Flames were placed under control within 15 minutes.
“It appears it could have been a malfunctioning heater,” Davis said. “But the cause of the fire is still being investigated.”
No injuries were reported.
The owner of the salon could not be reached for comment.
