People jumped from a 25-story residential high-rise in Los Angeles this morning after a fire enveloped the floor.
A suspect is in custody after a raging fire in a 25-story residential high-rise in Los Angeles on Wednesday left eight people injured, including a 3-month-old, the city's fire department said.
Despite initial reports from the fire department that people had jumped from the sixth floor of the building to escape the blaze, officials later said no one had jumped. More than 300 personnel and four helicopters responded to the blaze, the LAFD said. Nearby Santa Monica Fire Department, LAPD, LA Sheriff and allied agencies also responded.
Instead, the department was able to contact people inside the building and instructed them to go to the roof for evacuation, Hogan said. Fifteen people were transported from the roof directly to the hospital, Terrazas said.
