Several West Valley fire crews responded to the blaze at Olive Ridge on Monday night.
After bringing the fire under control, crews located the bodies of a man and a woman inside one of the apartments.
The 55-plus community near 103rd and Olive avenues appears to offer only independent senior housing options. Peoria police are currently investigating.
