The fire alarms in Chatham Hall were set off a few hours ago when a piece of machinery burnt out.
Residence Life informed TheAQ that there was no actual fire. Â The smell and smoke were caused by the motor in one of the laundry room machines failing.
Residents evacuated the building when the alarm went off. Â They took shelter from the rain in the Rigby Hall cafeteria until the Fredericton fire department cleared the building.
