Clarence Hill – Fort Worth Star-Telegram

A fire broke out Tuesday in a hotel room where Dallas Cowboys players are staying in Oxnard, California, home of their training camp.

The Residence Inn hotel room was empty and no one was injured.

A Cowboys spokesman said they didn’t know the cause of the fire.

Firefighters arrived to the scene to extinguish the fire.

The fire emergency was contained to one room, which was empty at the time, according to a statement from the Cowboys.

“The Dallas Cowboys thank the Oxnard Fire Department and Oxnard Police Department for their quick response and reaction to the situation,” the statement read.

The Cowboys will spend two more nights at the hotel before breaking camp on Thursday and returning to Dallas after roughly five weeks in Oxnard.

The Cowboys arrived on July 23 and will return to Dallas-Fort Worth Aug. 22. They play their last preseason game and the only one at home at AT&T Stadium Saturday against the Los Angeles Chargers.
