The Shelbyville Fire Department responded to Burger King Monday afternoon when an employee noticed smoke between an internal and external wall.

The call came in about 2:30 p.m. Smoke was spotted on the west side of the building near the drive thru. Fire crews quickly had control of the situation and the investigation into the cause continues.

The Shelbyville Fire Department was on the scene for about two hours.

Burger King, 1830 East SR 44, was going to be closed at least the remainder of the day.
