A fire heavily damaged India Grill and Bar in Royal Palm Beach Sunday night, but firefighters stopped it from spreading to nearby businesses, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue said.

Crews were dispatched around 11:20 p.m. to the restaurant, located in a strip mall on Royal Palm Beach Boulevard just north of Southern Boulevard.

Firefighters arrived to find flames coming from the front of the building and thick smoke pouring from the back.

The fire was under control about 30 minutes later. Some smoke entered neighboring units, but no injuries were reported.

Fire investigators remained at the scene overnight to determine how the fire started. The cause remains under investigation.

Salvage crews sifted through the charred remains of a home in Everett’s Pinehurst neighborhood, recovering checkbooks and medications. But a family friend says none of it matters given what was lost. “I don’t know how a parent recovers from the loss of a child,” said Heidi May, a family friend who grew up with Kierstin Lyons.

The fire broke out in the basement just after 9 a.m. Monday. That’s where 38-year-old Brandon Lyons, who was developmentally disabled, was trapped behind a wall of flame and smoke. Smoke and fire spread so quickly that he could not get out. His mother, Kierstin, tried desperately to reach him.

“She did everything humanly within her power to get to Brandon,” May said. Kierstin used a fire extinguisher and garden hose. She tried to break in through a back window. She put a wet towel over her face and ran into the fire. “The firefighters had to hold her back and put her in an ambulance,” May said. “She was just trying to get to her boy.”
