BURLINGTON, Iowa According to officials, the Burlington FD was called to the Comfort Suites on 1780 Stonegate Center Dr around 5:05 a.m. on Sat, Aug. 15, after fire alarms activated. Crews found that the eastern portion of the building's second-story section had collapsed over its ballroom. The collapse was isolated and did not impact the 3-story hotel portion of the building, allowing all 122 occupants to be safely evacuated. The building will be unoccupied until all fire alarms, sprinklers, electrical functions and other systems are restored.
