A man pulled from a burning apartment Saturday has died from his injuries, Tucson fire officials say.
The fire was reported shortly after 1 a.m. at an apartment complex in the 300 block of West Roger Road, near North Oracle Road, said Capt. Julian Herrera, a Tucson Fire Department spokesman.
Firefighters arrived within three minutes of being dispatched and found smoke and flames coming from a second-floor apartment, and police officers were evacuating residents from neighboring units.
Firefighters found a man inside the burning apartment and he was taken to the hospital, Herrera said in a news release.
The apartment lacked a working fire alarm, Herrera said.
The cause of the blaze is still undetermined and there were no other injuries.
