ST. PARIS, Ohio -- Investigators are trying to determine what caused a mobile-home fire in Ohio that killed four children.
The Saturday morning blaze near the western Ohio village of St. Paris is the state's deadliest fire this year.
State fire marshal's spokesman Shane Cartmill said Monday that the fire started in the living room, and there is no evidence that it was intentionally set.
The victims were identified as 2-year-old Nathan Skaggs, 8-year-old Patrick Snelling, 10-year-old Breonna Snelling and 10-year-old Cassandra Karg.
Cartmill says no smoke detectors were found inside the mobile home.
St. Paris is about 75 miles west of Columbus.
