Two people were taken to hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation after a fire at a residence in Etobicoke early Friday morning.

The blaze began on Dunbloor Road near Summerland Terrace at around 2:15 a.m.

Police say that the fire was likely caused by a pot on a stove inside the kitchen.

The two people that were taken to hospital were only transported as a precaution and are expected to be OK.
