Fire doused at Laughlin hotel

Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2005 | 9:41 a.m.

Clark County firefighters extinguished a blaze that threatened a popular Laughlin resort this morning, a department spokesman said.

Crews responded to the Riverside Resort about 7:50 a.m. after reports of fire spreading throughout the hotel's first floor, fire department spokesman Bob Leinbach said.

The fire was extinguished about 20 minutes later, although firefighters at 8:15 a.m. were monitoring smoke that had spread to the building's second floor, he said. Investigators this morning were looking into what caused the fire.

It was unclear how much damage the fire caused, Leinbach said. No injuries were reported.
