A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed by the mother of a woman who was killed in a high-rise fire this month against the owners and managers of the building.

Shantel McCoy was unaware of the fire on her floor and she entered an elevator in the lobby. She was met by 1,500 degrees temperatures.

The suit claims that the building should have had elevators that shut down in case of a fire. The owners and managers also never instructed residents to evacuate the building.
