A man rescued from a two-alarm apartment fire in Northeast D.C. died Wednesday morning.
About 100 firefighters responded to the fire in the two-story, four-unit apartment building in the 800 block of 20th Street NE around 4:30 a.m.
No other injuries were reported by D.C. Fire and EMS.
The fire in the rear of the building then spread to a neighboring building before the 20 dispatched units were able to put it out, according to D.C. Fire Chief John Donnelly.
