Fire Damages 3 Rooms at New Jersey Hotel
Authorities say a fire at the Rodeway Inn in Mount Laurel, N.J., damaged at least three rooms but apparently caused no injuries.
Officials say the wing that caught fire Wednesday morning was mostly vacant when the blaze broke out about 10 a.m.
The cause is under investigation.
Mount Laurel Battalion Chief Patrick Sharkey says three alarms were sounded because of fear it could spread to the roof and engulf the entire two-story building.
