Journalist notes

[edit]

I live in the residence halls where this happened. The name is "New Ressies", which is verifiable here.

The fire alarms went off this morning at approximately 3:20am. I know as I woke up because of them and bitched about it on skype. They stayed on for at least 5 minutes before turning off. There was no announcement and no smell of anything off. There were no sounds of sirens. The alarm went off again briefly for a second around 7am. It was one beep and more distant sounding than from where I lived. There is a scheduled alarm testing for tomorrow, Friday. I can confirm this by sending it to scoop.

Calvary Hospital is nearby. It is about a 5 minute bus ride.

I went out at about 10:51am local time (according to IRC time stamps) and did not see them. I returned around 12:19pm and they were still there.--LauraHale (talk) 07:01, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

The CLV press release e-mailed to scoop, along with the fire alarm notifications. --LauraHale (talk) 07:07, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
Randomly on the newsworthiness, the incident was mentioned on the local news. I heard it before I got the e-mail from my university. --LauraHale (talk) 07:44, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
