Owner noticed smoke on video camera, called authorities

Fire destroyed a popular watering hole in Coweta early Friday.

One of the owners saw smoke coming from the Wagon Wheel Tavern about 2 a.m.

Gary Kruse with the News On Six tells us, "There's been no reports of injuries. One of the owners said they saw the smoke on a camera they have at their residence inside their building and notified authorities."

The block building on Highway 51 has been a fixture in Coweta for a long time.
