Two people were killed and two injured in a house fire in Perris early Saturday morning, authorities said. The blaze was reported around 2:16 a.m. in the 1400 block of Portrait Road. When firefighters arrived, they saw heavy smoke and fire coming through the second story of a single-family home. After firefighters knocked down the blaze shortly before 3 a.m., two people were found dead inside. Witnesses said they saw a man on the ground who apparently jumped from a second-story window with his daughter in his arms. They were taken to a hospital with moderate injuries. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
