The Oxnard Fire Department and Police Department were on the scene Tuesday after a fire broke out at the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp hotel in Oxnard, Calif.
The Cowboys were conducting a walk-through practice on Tuesday afternoon when smoke began to billow from the nearby guest rooms at around 5 p.m. local time.
There is a fire at the hotel where the Cowboys stay for training camp, and firefighters are on the scene.

The Cowboys have had a couple of unusual disturbances of late. One player recently had to sit out due to drinking the wrong kind of milk.
With no real danger threatening Dallas on Tuesday, the team can get back to their biggest offseason issue of trying to mend their relationship with CeeDee Lamb.
