Medical center officials said the fire was isolated in an electrical closet near the cardiac catheterization laboratory, according to the report.
In a statement to LMT, officials said the fire was contained and no injuries were reported. Out of caution, officials moved a “small number of patients … to rooms in other areas of the hospital” during the incident.
The fire department has since given LMC the “all clear” to continue treating patients, according to the report.
