Tulsa firefighters responded to a fire near 21st Street and Mingo on October 9. Officials say the fire was at the vacant Roadway Inn.

Firefighters said no one was inside the hotel when they arrived. They said they found "numerous ignition sites," inside the building. The Roadway Inn has been vandalized and looted numerous times since its closure, officials said.
