To determine the time of the person who came in second place, we need to identify the swimmer with the second fastest time after the first place swimmer.

The times of the swimmers are:
1. 69.28 seconds
2. 74.5 seconds
3. 75.4 seconds
4. 69.15 seconds

First, let's identify the first place swimmer:
- The lowest time (first place) is **69.15 seconds**.

Next, we find the second lowest time:
- The second lowest time is **69.28 seconds**.

Thus, the time of the person who came in second place is **69.28 seconds**.

Therefore, the answer is **69.28 seconds**.
