An early morning house fire in Warrick County sent two people to the hospital. WNIN’s John Gibson has details:

Ohio Township firefighters were dispatched to the house in the 8000 block of Oak Grove Road at about 5 a.m. Monday.

The first crew on scene found smoke coming from the single-story house and residents evacuating the home.

The fire department says crews extinguished the blaze in about a half-hour.

An ambulance took both occupants to an area hospital.

Their names and conditions have not been released.

Crews remained on scene for salvage and overhaul operations for about an hour-and-a-half.
