DEVELOPING: Investigators say a fire that killed 1 and injured 5 at an Arapahoe County apartment complex was 'human-caused and incendiary in nature'
ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. — A fire that killed one person and injured five others at an Arapahoe County apartment complex last weekend was human-caused and “incendiary in nature,” according to South Metro Fire Rescue.
The fire broke out in the early-morning hours of April 8 at the Ivy Crossing Apartment Homes on Quebec Street in unincorporated Arapahoe County. Some residents jumped from the upper floors of the complex to safety as flames consumed the building.
Multiple violations found months before fatal fire at Arapahoe County apartment complex The report pointed out that manual fire alarms were not present in any of the buildings aside from the townhomes, which is required for residential buildings more than three stories in height or with more than 16 units—both of which the property meets or exceeds.
It’s unclear from the report if the property came into compliance after February’s inspection. Some of the remedies had a three-week timeline to complete.
