A minor dryer fire in Peabody Hall on Thursday caused the building to be evacuated but resulted in no damage other than to the dryer, Acting Executive Director of Campus Safety Services Charlie Leone said.

CSS was alerted to the incident around 2:52 p.m. Thursday, after smoke from the basement dryer set off fire alarms in the building.

Philadelphia Fire Department crews responded to the scene, which was given the all-clear a short while later.
