A fire ripped through the Braidwood Condominiums in Winter Park on April 13. The cause is still under investigation.<\/strong>

On Wednesday, the Grand County Coroner\u2019s Office identified the man killed in a fire at a Winter Park condo complex on April 13 as 28-year-old Andrew Barton of Grand County.<\/p>\n

An autopsy revealed that Barton died of carbon monoxide poisoning. The coroner\u2019s office determined his cause of death was accidental.<\/p>\n

The fire broke out on the second floor at the Braidwood complex around 3 a.m. Built decades ago, the building lacked modern fire suppression systems, and flames spread to the third floor and the building\u2019s roof.<\/p>\n

One resident escaped unharmed, but authorities could not account for a man who also lived inside the condos. It took firefighters several hours to get the flames under control, and suppression efforts continued for the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n
