Aroostook Hall had to be evacuated Friday morning after a fire broke out in the basement and filled the building with smoke. David Fielder, University of Maine npshire 2:00 fire chief, said the fire began in a freight 'nal 1E30 elevator and-probably started when trash 3owdoin 1. or paper in the elevator was ignited. "It appeared to be accidental," he said. Lt. Peter Noddin with the fire department said the fire was probably caused by a cigarette that was thrown in one of the-trash hags in the elevator. "The elevator was full of garbage,' he said. Ray Thomas, assistant fire chief for the department, said smoke from the fire quickly filled the basement and spread throughout the building. "There was smoke everywhere," he said. Duane Bassett, Orono fire chief, said overall damage to the building was limited to smoke damage and was "minimaL". "We got all the water up from the tiles in the basement before it caused any damage.' he said.
