2 found dead in Minnetonka house fire

MINNETONKA, Minn. (AP) -- Minnetonka fire officials who put out a late-night house fire say two people were found dead inside.

Assistant fire Chief Jim Flanders says a passer-by reported the blaze Friday about 10:30 p.m. after seeing flames at the home.

Flanders says six fire departments responded and were able to extinguish the fire fairly quickly.

The identities of the victims have not been released.

A St. Paul Pioneer Press report says officials are investigating what caused the fire and how the victims died.
