19 Year Old Dies in Brentwood Apartment Fire Monday, January 29th.

The Los Angeles County coroner's office has identified the victim who died after last Wednesday's high-rise apartment fire.

Jeremy Bru, 19, died of complications from smoke inhalation and thermal injuries. The coroner has ruled his death "accidental," which opens the way for insurance claims. Bru was not the man out on the ledge rescued by firefighters, reports KABC News, which filmed that famous footage.

So far, there has been no word on what sparked the fire which began on the 7th floor of the Barrington Plaza apartment complex. But arson is being investigated.

Eleven people were treated, mostly for smoke inhalation.

Barrington Plaza is an apartment complex located at 11740 Wilshire Boulevard in West Los Angeles community of Los Angeles, California . At the time of its completion, in 1962, it was described as the largest privately built apartment development in the western United States.

On January 29, 2020, a multiple alarm fire occurred at 8:30 am at Barrington Plaza causing 11 reported injuries and extensive damage to the 6th floor. Some residents were rescued by helicopter from the roof.
