WASHINGTON (AP) — Authorities say three
maintenance
workers were seriously injured after a fire broke out at the State Department
headquarters in Washington.
D.C. Fire and EMS spokesman Lon Walls said the fire
broke out at around 11 a.m. Saturday in the ductwork on the 7th floor. Workers
were able to put out the fire before firefighters arrived, but three people
suffered burns.
Walls said one person suffered
life-threatening injuries and two others had serious but non-life-threatening
injuries. All three were taken to Washington Hospital Center.
State department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said the
fire broke out during routine maintenance to a mechanical area of the building.
She said the building was briefly evacuated and then reopened.
