A fire in a second-floor flat on Tollgate Road, Beckton, on 6 April 2023 caused the death of 15-year-old Tiffany Regis from smoke inhalation. The London Fire Brigade attended with six engines and around 40 firefighters; the blaze was under control by 6.33pm. Five other people were injured and taken to hospital but later discharged. A 16-year-old boy has been charged with manslaughter, arson and arson with recklessness as to whether life was endangered; he has been bailed and is due to appear at Stratford Magistrates' Court on 24 February. Local officials offered condolences and support to the bereaved family and to attending crews.
