Fire drives 1500 Statler Hotel guests to street in panic
A pantry fire on the third floor of the 21 story Statler Hotel near Madison Square Garden sent about 1500 guests rushing outside in the early hours. Eight people suffered minor smoke inhalation, and the fire was declared under control at 4 35 a.m. No serious injuries were reported. Guests included over 1000 students attending a National Model United Nations conference from the United States and Canada. The blaze caused ceiling debris to fall briefly and smoke traveled through vents before firefighters contained the flames.
