Albuquerque Fire Rescue Lt. Gilbert Gallegos Jr. said discovery of the boy’s body accounted for all 31 residents, some of whom jumped from balconies and windows to escape the flames early Tuesday morning.
No identities were released.
Police and firefighters went to the complex in response to a call about a fire and that the call included a female voice saying “Please don’t hurt me.”
Ruiz says officials don’t know who made the statement or anything about its origin.
Cause of the fire is under investigation.
