A fire in the same apartment building Thursday morning resulted in the death of 68-year-old Cynthia Ferguson. At least 5 other residents suffering from smoke inhalation were transported to St. Marys Hospital for treatment and Sheriff Scott Rose earlier indicated 2 of them were thought to be in critical condition.

Investigators from the State Fire Marshal’s Office were called to the scene to investigate, but officials have yet to say if the cause has been determined.
