Emergency workers on Tuesday responded to fires inside RFK Stadium — the former, longtime home of Washington's NFL team. The District of Columbia Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department tweeted out a video of crews on the scene with smoke clearly emanating from one of the dugouts. DC Fire indicated that there were "several fires in below grade levels in the stadium." DC Fire later confirmed that all fires had been extinguished and that there were no injuries. The cause of the fires is under investigation.
