No one was hurt during an overnight fire at Hooters in North Myrtle Beach overnight.

The damage, though, will cost $120,000.

The fire started around 4:30 Saturday morning.

The North Myrtle Beach fire chief says it was caused by a malfunctioning air handling unit in the attic.

It was the only area in the building that did not have sprinklers.

Fire damage was contained to the roof and attic, but there is water damage in the restaurant area and offices.

No word yet on when Hooters will reopen.
