PROVIDENCE – An early morning fire in the West End sent two residents of a 3 ½-story wood-frame dwelling to Rhode Island Hospital with smoke inhalation.

The fire was reported at about 4 a.m. on the second floor of the building at 103 Hanover St. and was under control by 4:30 a.m., according to James Taylor, chief of communications for the Providence Fire Department.

The cause of the fire is under investigation, Taylor said.
