Myrtle Beach firefighters battled an early morning fire at Time Out nightclub in downtown Myrtle Beach. Lt. Sam Vest with the Myrtle Beach Police Department said the blaze is now completely out, and all roads in the area should be open within the next hour.
The fire started around 3:20 a.m. in the second floor of the nightclub building, which is located at 520 Eighth Ave. N. in the superblock area near the former Pavilion Amusement Park site. Vest said no other details are available at this time.
Flames were still showing 90 minutes after the fire started, but the fire was just about out by about 6:30 a.m.
The bar has served the gay community in Myrtle Beach for a number of years.
The manager of the bar Adam Amira says he and a few other people were in the bar when they hear a loud noise upstairs and then smelled smoke. When he went to check it out, he saw the fire and called 911.
