On Thursday night, a sprinkler system was triggered by a battery explosion, resulting in the temporary evacuation of the Kansas Star Casino.
According to Kansas TV station KWCH, the incident started at the Mulvane, Kansas, gambling site at 10 p.m. when a radio's lithium battery failed.
A casino security guard observed smoke coming from the explosion and called Mulvane Fire Rescue.
"The sprinkler drenched the fire and pretty much put it out,” Mulvane Fire Rescue Deputy Fire Chief Lowell Ester told KWCH.
Ester clarified that the radio, which was situated on a chair in an office, had "enough combustibles in it that it got hot fast enough that it kicked the sprinkler head [on]."
The casino offices had water damage as a result of the event, but no one was hurt.
Boyd Gaming is the owner and operator of the casino.
