A Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant in downtown Dallas temporarily closed Tuesday after mice were spotted.
The closure announcement comes on the heels of video footage of the rodent sighting went viral after a Chipotle customer posted it on Twitter.
Quinn Kelsey, communications and public relations manager for Chipotle, issued a statement Thursday to International Business Times about the closing.
"We have temporarily closed the Chipotle restaurant in Dallas’ historic West End District at 208 North Market Street so we can continue to thoroughly assess the construction of this 100-year-old building," Kelsey told IBT.
A norovirus outbreak also plagued the fast food chain in July, which CNN reported that a sick employee was responsible for spreading the infection at a Virginia location.
