Windsor police have confirmed a body was found by firefighters while extinguishing an early morning blaze on Aubin Rd.
Crews were called to the 1400-block just before 1:30am. The fire spread to a neighbouring home, but was eventually extinguished.
As firefighters began going through the rubble to determine a cause, they discovered the body. The coroner was called to the scene.
One person was also taken to hospital with minor smoke inhalation.
Damage to the home is estimated at around $150,000, with $50,000 damage to contents within the home. Damage to the neighbouring home is pegged at $90,000.
Windsor police and an investigator with the Office of the Ontario Fire Marshal are conducting the investigation, which is in its preliminary stages.
