Two bodies have been found in the rubble of an apartment complex that burned to the ground in Springfield Township early Monday morning.

Springfield Township Fire Chief Barry Cousino confirmed both fatalities. The victims' identities have not yet been released. 

According to Chief Cousino, Building G of Hidden Cedars Condominiums has been completely destroyed, but the fire is now under control.

One woman was taken to the hospital after jumping from a third floor window. Another victim was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation.

At this time, the cause of the fire is unknown, but fire crews said it looked suspicious.

The Toledo chapter of the American Red Cross is providing emergency shelter, mental health counseling, food and clothing to 30 adults and 39 children displaced by the fire.

This is the complex's second fire since 2009.
