A fire that displaced 30 people from a northeast Kansas apartment building earlier this week has now claimed one life.
The fire department in Kansas City, Kan., says 45-year-old Darrin Walker died Thursday. Walker suffered second- and third-degree burns in the blaze Monday afternoon.
No one else was injured in the fire, which heavily damaged the three-story, 12-unit building. Another tenant had rescued Walker from his second-floor apartment.
Investigators are still trying to determine the cause of the fire. Total damage was estimated at $180,000.
