Two people were found dead following a first-alarm fire at a senior living community in Peoria.
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.
