Marquee Cinemas Briefly Evacuated Sunday Night
Moviegoers at Marquee Cinemas in New Hartford were briefly evacuated Sunday Night.
However, they were soon allowed back into the theater. Management refused comment, but a patron told WIBX she believed it was just some smoke caused by burned popcorn that triggered the alarm.
No fire personnel were observed on scene as of 9:00 p.m. and customers were being allowed back into the theater.
Patrons said they were told they could return to watch the remainder of their movie, or were given a pass to see future show. Those arriving for late shows said they were told by staff that their movie start times were being pushed back.
