Atlantic City Tropicana: Unexpected Gamble:Meth Lab<\/h1>\n

\u00a0 Wacky News from the Place We All Love<\/p>\n

\"Tropicana<\/p>\n

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. \u2014 Police in New Jersey charged a man with setting up a methamphetamine lab that caused a fire in an Atlantic City casino hotel room, leading<\/a> four floors to be evacuated.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He had to come to Atlantic City for this? And go to the awesome Trop? I suppose he wanted some Havana shopping while being nuts.<\/h4>\n

Wednesday’s fire at the Tropicana<\/a> casino injured two people \u2014 the man who rented the room and later was arrested and a hotel employee who entered the room after the fire was detected. The hotel worker’s condition was not available Thursday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We all hope he will be fine.<\/p>\n

Steve Callender, the Tropicana’s general manager, said the area is safe to inhabit, and the affected rooms will be available Friday.<\/p>\n

“The safety of our guests and employees is our number one priority at Tropicana Atlantic City,” he said. “Only a few rooms were affected by the fire. Hotel rooms have been professionally inspected, and cleared to go back online tomorrow.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We don’t know if this was the new part of the Trop, but it will be new now after they fix.<\/p>\n

But smoke from the fire caused the temporary evacuation of guests on four floors and had to be vented from the building by using portable fans.<\/p>\n

About 12 hours after the fire, all three were spotted nearby on Pacific Avenue and taken into custody. Two of them were released without being charged.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Lucky them, but I bet they are now banned from gambling as well in any casino.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
