Authorities are investigating a fire at a senior living facility in Middletown that sent two people to the hospital.
The incident happened at the StoryPoint Senior Living Facility in the 500 block of Meridian Hills Drive around 9:30 a.m. Saturday.
Anchorage Middletown Fire & EMS says firefighters found a haze in a second-floor room and an activated sprinkler system in a three-story building.
The fire was contained to the room, but eight units are unhabitable due to water damage from the sprinkler system.
Anchorage Middletown Fire & EMS said two residents were taken to the hospital, one with smoke inhalation and another due to a medical emergency.
About 130 residents were evacuated safely and relocated to a safe wing of the complex.
It took dozens of firefighters about 30 minutes to get the fire under control.
A cause of the fire has not been determined.
