Elderly couple found dead after Hampton house fire

A man and woman were found dead in a home on Enscore Court early Tuesday morning, according to fire officials.

HAMPTON, Va. — Two people are dead after a Hampton house fire totally engulfed a home early Tuesday morning.

Firefighters responded to the home on Enscore Court just before 3:45 a.m. That's in the Michael’s Woods neighborhood of the city.

When firefighters got to the scene, the house fire was "fully involved," officials said.

“The second floor has collapsed down to the first floor, so we’re having to sift through debris of basically two floors to try and find the cause," Battalion Chief Anthony Chittum said.

According to the Hampton Divison of Fire & Rescue, an elderly couple was found dead inside the home.

Officials said the fire doesn't appear to be suspicious, but it is under investigation.
