A fire at the Montgomery Village Eye Center (18310 Montgomery Village Ave Suite 140) around 1:20am is being investigated as arson in addition to the four other fires that occurred last night in the Gaithersburg/Montgomery Village area. 


There were several fires that occurred overnight in the same geographical area (Gaithersburg/Montgomery) that are currently being investigated according to Chief Spokesperson for Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Pete Piringer.

The fires occurred on Divot Place, Delcastle Road, Watkins Mill Circle, and East Diamond Avenue. They included a fence, garage, vehicle and a retail location.


Signage is now up at the upcoming Chopt location in the Kentlands neighborhood of Gaithersburg. The new restaurant is located next to MOD pizza on Commerce Square.

We spoke to representatives from the Rockville Chopt location two weeks ago were told us the new Kentlands location is scheduled to open in “late October”.
