Producing a thick, black smoke plume that was seen throughout downtown Denver on Thursday afternoon, a fire burned in a portion of the club level on the east side of Empower Field at Mile High, which is home to the NFL's Broncos.
A Denver Fire Department spokesman said the fire covered "over 1,000 square feet'' and began on a suite level -- the fourth level -- of the stadium and then spread into seats in the third level.

The fire began in a part of the Fentress-designed stadium that is currently under construction. No injuries were reported. Officials said that the composition of the plastic seats in part helped fuel the blaze, producing a porous cloud of black smoke that could be seen widely across the city.
