Fort Worth Apartment Fire Fallout Intensifies as Displaced Resident Climbs Past Security and Throws Belongings From Balcony

FORT WORTH, TEXAS — Nearly a month after a massive apartment fire displaced more than 800 residents, tensions at a Fort Worth complex boiled over this week when a frustrated resident bypassed security, entered her unit, and threw her belongings off the balcony after claiming management refused to tell her why she wasn’t being allowed inside.

Resident Says She Was Given “No Answers” Before Taking Action

According to witnesses, the woman—whose apartment was one of the units not physically damaged by the fire—said she repeatedly asked for an explanation as to why she still could not retrieve her belongings. When she says she received no reason or timeline, she decided to go inside on her own.

Video from the scene shows the resident climbing past security barriers, entering her unit, and tossing clothes and personal items onto the sidewalk below. In the video, she can be heard saying:

“They’re gonna learn. If they want to give me a reason as to why I can’t go in, then give me a reason. You’ve said nothing.”
