A 32-year-old man is in critical condition Tuesday after he suffered severe burns in a fire at a triplex in the Pico-Union neighborhood of Los Angeles.
Los Angeles Fire Department firefighters were called at 4:04 a.m. to 1818 S. Arapahoe St., north of Washington Boulevard where they found flames coming from one unit at a triplex, said LAFD spokeswoman Lyndsey Lantz.
The fire was knocked down in 13 minutes, the LAFD said.
Firefighters will remain at the scene for overhaul duties, Lantz said.
