HOUSTON (AP) - Firefighters have found a body in the rubble of a Houston condominium complex where at least two other people were hurt during an early-morning blaze.

A Houston Fire Department statement says authorities are trying to determine what sparked the fire around 3 a.m. Tuesday. Officials say about 20 units were damaged or destroyed in the fire brought under control after about an hour.

Firefighters arrived to find multiple units burning. Officials say one woman suffered smoke inhalation and was transported to a hospital. Details on her weren’t immediately released.



Authorities say another resident jumped from his second-story unit and was checked for scrapes and bruises.

Firefighters late Tuesday morning were searching the damaged third floor when they discovered the body of a woman. Officials didn’t immediately release details on her.
