With flames coming from the rear of the two-bedroom mobile home, firefighters were able to rescue a man who lived there. The body of his female roommate was later discovered in the charred remains of the structure after the fire was extinguished, Verbrugge said.
Authorities have not released the name of either victim.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Residents said there have been a couple of tragic fires at the trailer park in recent years, including a boy who was killed when a meth lab caught fire and an elderly woman who died when her cigarette ignited an oxygen tank.
