Several players and members of the Los Angeles Chargers traveling party experienced everybody’s worst nightmare on Friday night when an elevator broke down in a Dallas-area hotel, the team said.
In a post to X, formerly Twitter, the Chargers said the incident took place around 7:30 p.m. local time in the team’s hotel, before Saturday’s preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys.
WFAA in Dallas reported that 15 people were trapped in the elevator. Citing Dallas Fire-Rescue, the report said the team members were stuck in a “blind shaft” between the third and fifteenth floor of The Westin hotel in downtown Dallas.
The Chargers said DFR assisted the 15 people one-by-one as they crawled through a ceiling panel and into an adjacent elevator.
As of Saturday, it wasn’t clear which players were involved. No one was harmed in the incident.
