A fire at the Gold Run Condominium Complex that started about 2:45 a.m. this morning has displaced an unknown number of University of Colorado at 麻豆影院 students and other residents.

Three people were admitted to 麻豆影院 Community Hospital for smoke inhalation. At this point serious injuries have not been reported, according to officials at the scene. It is not yet known if any of the three people admitted to 麻豆影院 Community Hospital were CU-麻豆影院 students.

麻豆影院 Fire Department officials this morning issued an urgent request that all persons affected by the fire assemble at the Gold Run Health Club on Shadow Creek Road as soon as possible. The Gold Run complex is located off 30th Street between Arapahoe Avenue and Colorado Avenue.

The fire has affected a 36-unit building straddling two addresses, 2800 and 2802, and reportedly displaced about 50 residents. One of the two buildings reportedly sustained severe damage and was continuing to smolder at mid-morning today.

CU-麻豆影院 students affected by the fire are being directed to call the following numbers for more information on securing temporary shelter for the weekend and for assistance with contacting faculty about coursework and making other arrangements. The numbers to call are (303) 492-8476 or (303) 492-8477.

Temporary shelter for students will be made available by the university today at the CU Recreation Center in the mat room. Some students reportedly have made arrangements to stay with friends or relatives.

Temporary meal passes for CU-麻豆影院 residence hall dining services also are available to students affected by the fire. Students who have been processed through the Gold Run Health Club or the Recreation Center can obtain the temporary meal passes.

Campus Housing officials also are working with local hotels to provide temporary housing until permanent space can be identified. Plans for long-term shelter for displaced students will be announced later.

Additional information on university services for students affected by the fire will be released as it becomes available and posted on the CU-麻豆影院 Web site at .
