The coroner's office identified the victim Tuesday as Cunisha Jean Jackson, a 23-year-old Richmond resident.
The one-alarm fire was reported at about 10 p.m. in a one-story triplex at 470 20th St. near Barrett Avenue, Richmond Fire Chief Michael Banks said.
Firefighters broke through a heavy door to reach the interior, where two young women were found unconscious and seriously injured, Banks said.
The victims were carried from the burning home to the street, where a medical team performed CPR, according to Banks. The two were then transported in critical condition to the hospital, where one victim, 22-year-old Krystal Giles, also of Richmond, died from her injuries.
Jackson remained in critical condition but died Monday afternoon.
Firefighters managed to control the fire by about 10:20 p.m., but the apartment was destroyed. Damage was estimated to be about $200,000, Banks said.
A fire investigator is still working to determine the cause of the fire, Banks said Tuesday.
