A person jumped out of a window to escape a fierce fire that ignited in a four-story Westlake apartment building Sunday morning and survived with injuries.
The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to the blaze at 140 S. Reno St. at 11:26 a.m. using a team of 50 firefighters to extinguish the fire before noon.
The fire appears to have originated in the second-floor hallway of the building, quickly spreading to the third floor, according to the LAFD.
Officials conducted two searches of the building and its exterior and found no additional injuries, emphasizing the urgency of their response.
