THE COSMOPOLITAN IN LAS VEGAS WAS BURNING SATURDAY - THE ROOFTOP POOL DECK AREA ABLAZED IN FLAMES AND SMOKE

Two people were injured and hundreds of others were forced to flee after a fire broke out at a luxury hotel in Las Vegas on Saturday afternoon.
The blaze started at an outside pool area on a 14th-floor deck of The Cosmopolitan and quickly spread, setting pool cabanas and trees alight.
As large plumes of black smoke billowed into the sky, terrified guests fled to safety and more than 100 firefighters rushed to the scene.
One person injured in the blaze was taken to hospital, while a second guest with minor injuries is still being evaluated at the 2,995-room hotel.
The pair both suffered smoke inhalation, officials said.  
Firefighters extinguished the blaze around 30 minutes after arriving at the scene, Fire Chief Greg Cassell told KSNV. An investigation is ongoing.
