The State Fire Marshal's Office is investigating an overnight fire at Nick's at Gulf Shores. The Italian food restaurant is located on Hwy 59 in Gulf Shores.

The fire started around 3:30 a.m. A Passerby saw the flames and called 911.

Nick's just opened 11 weeks ago. The owners, Nick and Cathy Casserio, lived in an upstairs apartment. They barely made it out. Their 12 year old dog did not.

Investigator's say someone shut off the building's sprinkler system before the fire started.
