DALLAS — Several Los Angeles Chargers players and other members of the traveling party crawled through a ceiling panel to escape a stuck hotel elevator Friday night.
The NFL said on social media that around 7:30 p.m., Dallas Fire-Rescue helped the people in the elevator through the ceiling panel to an adjacent elevator.
“The Los Angeles Chargers thank Dallas Fire-Rescue for their quick response, professionalism and significant efforts to ensure everyone’s safety,” the team said.
The Chargers will close out the preseason Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys on the AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Los Angeles opens the regular season at home on September 8 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
