understood. But why count from the outside when you’ve allegedly got fire alarms going off in the room ? I don’t know how hotels work, but wouldn’t that set off some sort of rather prominent front desk or security desk alarm? That floor would have been my starting point I guess?
Police were counting from outside. Hotel staff was inside and knew exactly the floor count. The first floor count estimate by a policeman was way off. Think he said 50th on the scanner. He was not even close. Probably took a wild guess.
