College basketball game in Indiana is EVACUATED as fire alarm bizarrely sounds at Assembly Hall… with the venue left completely empty before fans return after all-clear

A college basketball game between Indiana University and the University of Wisconsin was briefly stopped when a fire alarm sounded inside Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana.

With the game tied 54-54 around the tenth minute, alarms sounded and fans were asked to evacuate the arena.

After a brief period of teams being off the field and the arena nearly empty, the Bloomington Fire Department and IU Campus Police were able to clear the facility for people to return.

“The Bloomington Fire Department has given the all-clear following the activation of a fire alarm at Skojdt Assembly Hall this afternoon,” IU Police said in a tweet. “Fans can safely re-enter the building.”

With that, fans returned inside the building and the game finally resumed after a brief warm-up period.
