Fire crews were sent to a multi-story vacant hospital on Sixth Avenue South for a reported fire alarm. Several engines, a truck, and a battalion chief arrived and checked the building. Nothing was visible from the outside, and crews entered to look for any problem or staff. After investigating, they found no fire and determined the alarm was false. Other medical calls for cardiac and chest pain patients were also dispatched during this time but were separate from the hospital alarm.
