Two people suffered burn injuries Thursday morning at a northwest Oklahoma City home, fire officials said.
The incident happened about 8:55 a.m. in the 1100 block of NW 84 Street.
Initially, first responders thought the incident was a suicide attempt. After gathering more information, the fire department said it is unclear what the intent of the incident was.
One man was burned and taken to a local hospital in critical condition. A woman was also burned and she was taken to a hospital in serious condition.
Police told News 9 the man tried to set himself on fire after his ex-girlfriend refused to reconcile and she was burned when she tried to save him.
