Chaos unfolded during Sunday's NFL RedZone broadcast when host Scott Hanson and the entire crew had to be evacuated from their Inglewood, California studio due to an alarm going off.

Have a look at the scene as it unfolded during the fourth quarter of two key games involving the Buffalo Bills and Philadelphia Eagles, as well as the Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs.

The alarm could clearly be heard going off in the background, as Hanson told viewers about the unprecedented situation that forced everybody out of the studio.

It was only a few moments later that Hanson and his crew returned after being told it was safe for them to do so, adding that they will "soldier on." The alarm was still going off in the background following their return to the studio.
