As discussed during the dispatch call, emergency units responded to a possible small fire or smoke situation in a smoking area at the Knoxville Area Transit facility near Church Avenue. Firefighters and paramedics temporarily restricted inbound bus access via the Hall of Fame entrance, redirecting buses through the Church Street gate until the scene was cleared. The situation was contained quickly, and operations returned to normal once the fire crew left.
