LAS VEGAS -- A three-alarm fire is in progress on top of the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino at 3770 Las Vegas Blvd. S.

The blaze began shortly after 11 a.m. Friday.

Dark plumes of smoke can be seen, and fire crews are en route to the scene.

The blaze began at the top of the hotel and appears to be spreading down. There are 32 floors and about 3,000 people staying at the hotel.

The fire is burning in three different parts of the hotel.

Guests were spotted looking out of hotel wind@ws, and guests are gambling. There has been no evacuation.

Debris is falling from the blaze, and it is catching other parts of the hotel on fire.

Las Vegas Boulevard is closed from Harmon to Tropicana avenues.

There is no word on the cause of the blaze or whether or not there have been any injuries.


guests are gambling Gotta love Vegas...

The fire is burning in three different parts of the hotel.

Can you say ARSON...

Is that a steel-frame structure? Will it collapse like WTC's 1&2 did? Was thermite involved to cut the beams? will there be explosions before a devastating pancake event, where the building falls at the same rate as a billiards ball dropped from the roof? were there explosions in the sub-basement BEFORE the fire(s) started?

Ok, Removing tinfoil hat now.

Hyper you read my mind. Unless they're talking about the fires from debris falling, that's GOTTA be arson. Probably somebody who got taken for a big loss recently. Try 99% of the people who've ever gambled there.

You gotta love Vegas. Why does it not surprise me at all that morons are still gambling??

Can you say ARSON...

The different fires were started by the decorative foam facade melting and dripping down the sides. On the way down the burning pieces of foam started more fires.
