Over a week after a fire destroyed 101 Smokehouse in downtown Kenton, the cause has still not been determined.

Firefighters were called to the scene during the early morning hours of July 31 after a passerby noticed smoke and called 9-1-1.

The building was a total loss, but there were no injuries.

The State Fire Marshal’s Office was called to investigate.

As of this (Friday) morning, officials with the office said the fire remains under investigation.
