NEW DETAILS: Some Red Jacket guests could be seen jumping from upper-level to lower-level balconies before safely escaping at the ground level, the fire marshal's office said. There have been no reports of any guests unaccounted for.
The resort confirmed in a statement to NBC10 Boston and NECN that a fire broke out on the property Saturday afternoon, noting that the North Conway Fire Department and area partners are working to extinguish the flames.
"Guest safety remains our utmost focus as we continue to work closely with emergency responders," a spokesperson for the resort told NBC10 Boston and NECN.Aerial footage from NBC10 Boston’s SkyRanger helicopter and videos posted on Twitter showed flames shooting through the building's roof, and thick black smoke could be seen billowing into the sky from miles away.
Emergency sirens could also be heard in the background, and people could be seen standing on a grassy hill watching the fire burn.
