Once the fire was extinguished, they found a body as they conducted a search of the building, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
The person has not been identified, but authorities said the preliminary investigation indicates a "potential suspicious death prior to the fire."
Overnight, police were seen securing the area with crime tape, and arson investigators also responded. Animal control officers were seen taking a dog away from the scene, though it appeared to be OK.
