Man found dead in burning apartment
Firefighters discovered a man dead early Monday in a burning apartment in the Palms neighborhood near Culver City, and officials were investigating the cause of death, authorities said.
The victim, about 40, was found just after 5 a.m. in a second-floor unit in the 10900 block of West Regent Street, said Ron Myers, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Fire Department.
“The fire itself was a relatively small fire within the structure,” Myers said. The cause of the fire also was under investigation.
