EARLE, Ark. (AP) – Arkansas authorities say the deaths of a child, the child’s
mother and a man found inside a burning home are being investigated as
homicides.
Crittenden County Sheriff’s Chief Todd Grooms said firefighters discovered the
bodies shortly before 1 a.m. Monday in the home in Earle.
Grooms declined to say how they died or release their names and ages. He
described the child as “young” and said the man and woman are not believed to be
related. He didn’t say whether a suspect is in custody.
Grooms said the bodies were sent to the state medical examiner’s office to
determine the causes of death. The state fire marshal’s office will determine
the cause of the fire.
