Fireground audio & video from 4-alarm fire in Dallas. Two restaurants destroyed owned by well-known tournament poker player.

From the AP:

Four businesses were destroyed by fire today morning in the restaurant-packed lower Greenville Avenue area of Dallas — when the places were closed.

The multi-alarm blaze left one firefighter being treated for smoke inhalation.

Fire department spokesman Jason Evans says the fire apparently started in Terrilli’s, a popular restaurant in the neighborhood east of downtown known for its eateries, funky retail stores and live-music clubs.

Evans says the adjoining restaurants that were destroyed share a crawl space with Terrilli’s.

Gregg Merkow of Plano, a well-known tournament poker player who owns two restaurants destroyed by the fire, said he raced down to the area to see smoke billowing from his bar.
