Fire trucks
respond to
AQII
inioc bail
By PATRICK JEAN
Assistant Spotlight editor
A false telephone report of a
fire brought Columbia lire trucks
racing to Bates West dorm.
Someone with a male-sounding
voice called the Columbia Fire
Department at 9:08 p.m. Friday
reporting a fire at the dorm, according
to shift commander
I rt.iic W/iIKo
L/vui.i tv uiiaiii.i.
As students watched, two lire
trucks, a hook-and-ladder unit
and four university police
vehicles arrived at Bates West.
Firemen began a floor-by-floor
check for smoke or flames about
9:10 p.m.
Firemen remained on the scene
for about 15 minutes, but found
nothing. No alarms went off or
were pulled inside the building,
according to Tamara Smoot, a
desk attendant at Bates dorm.
"A control panel in each dorm
would go off in the event of fire.
That didn't happen at either
Bates or Bates West," she said.
Williams said the incident was
a deliberate, malicious false
alarm. "Usually alarm boxes will
be pulled or go off inside the
buildings. But this was a false
report by telephone, so this was
quite unusual and quite
malicious."
On March 3, fire trucks
responded to a false alarm at the
dorm. A water leak in the basement
accidentally triggered
equipment that alerts the city of
fires. No alarms went off in the
residence hall at that time either.
University police officials
declined to comment until a
report on the matter is completed.
The Bates Area manager's
office could not be reached for
lUIIIIIICIll.
Williams said the fire department
will not be investigating the
telephone hoax.
