Palomar evacuated due to smoke

SANTA CRUZ — A report of smoke on the fifth floor of the Palomar Inn on the 1300 block Pacific Avenue prompted the evacuation of the building around 5:30 p.m.

Police and fire crews blocked off Pacific Avenue in front of the building and a portion of Walnut Avenue while firefighters searched the structure for a fire. Foot and vehicle traffic were affected by the closures.

A fire alarm triggered the call, and no fire was actually reported.
