Speaking as a former (looong time ago) airport LEO, I can say anything like that would be considered as if the fire/electrical/explosion/whatever were an attempt at a diversion for the purpose of avoiding or bypassing the Immigration checks. Emergency plans are already in place in every airport to evacuate everyone to a secure location until it can be sorted out. If it happens, plan on delays getting to your destination.
