Chicago firefighters responded to a pair of separate overnight fires on the city's South and West Sides.
A 50-year-old man was found dead inside an apartment during a fire around 1 a.m. near West Wilcox and South Washtenaw.
About 15 minutes later on the Far South Side, a woman is hospitalized in critical condition following a fire at 79th place near commercial avenue. Two police officers responding to that fire were also hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
Both fires now remain under investigation.
