The Port Ewen Fire Department, assisted by the Esopus, Kingston, and Ulster departments, contained the fire to the north wing of the motel. About a dozen people fled their rooms safely except for a 43-yr.-old man who is unaccounted for. It is not yet known if the missing man perished in the blaze or was absent when the fire broke out. One witness said that they had seen him on the property about 2 hours before the fire.
