Clark County Deputy Fire Chief Warren Whitney said the fire caused little damage.
“The occupant of the room, they had candles lit and they had the sliding door open and it was windy,” Whitney said. “The wind blew a curtain into a candle and ignited the curtain.”
Whoops.
Kids, quick lesson here: Fire + Wind = Never Good.
Deputy Chief Whitney said the occupant of the room is believed to have used a fire extinguisher to put out the flames. The LVRJ adds that several people were taken to a hospital with minor injuries.
Thank goodness it didn’t turn into anything tragic.
Marriott CEO Dies
Marriott CEO Arne Sorenson died of pancreatic cancer — at just age 62.
Seeing his cause of death put a pit in my stomach and lump in my throat. Pancreatic cancer killed my mother about 20 years ago. As fellow blogger Brian Cohen noted today, the disease is very much a death sentence.
Best wishes to his family, friends, and everyone at Marriott.
