WEST HOLLYWOOD | A fire Thursday burned through the roof of the Body Shop, a landmark West Hollywood strip club mentioned in a Motley Crue hit.
The blaze was reported about 6:46 a.m. at the one-story club on Sunset Boulevard, the Los Angeles County Fire Department said.
Firefighters don't think anyone was in the building at the time of the fire and were investigating its cause.
It took about an hour to douse the fire, which was mainly confined to the attic, fire inspector Frank Garrido said. One firefighter suffered a minor injury.
