Tulsa's new city hall had to be evacuated this morning after the building's fire alarm and a sprinkler went off. It happened at about 8:20 a.m. Friday morning. Fire officials say Lazy Eye Productions, an independent film crew, was working on a feature film on the 14th floor when a light was placed too close to a sprinkler sensor. The sprinkler was activated and was on for a few minutes before being shut off by building maintenance.

Water damage was done to the carpet and unoccupied cubical work space on the 14th floor and water also seeped through to the 13th floor which was occupied by the Level-3 Company.

NewsChannel 8 myTAKE - What's Your Opinion? Officials say a damage assessment is underway and that Lazy Eye Productions has liability insurance to cover the damage.

During the ordeal, evacuation procedures were followed throughout the building and all employees were able to exit the building through the stair wells.

This week, many of the City of Tulsa offices are being moved into the new building and ironically, today was the day that the Tulsa Fire Department's main office was moving in.
