Welding Torch Caused Connie’s Fire – Finger Lakes Daily News

Sparks from a welding torch started the fire last week at Connie’s Diner in Waterloo.

On a Facebook post the owners, the Cartatozzolo family, say the welding work was being done last Monday for new awnings.

The diner has about 40-employees.

It’s the second fire in less than three years. A basement electrical problem caused a fire in August 2021.
