PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Officials provide update on deadly house fire
Authorities provide the latest update following a deadly house fire early Sunday morning.
"This is definitely a homicide, not accidental death due to fire and smoke inhalation," said Sergeant Michael Ritchie, of the Harris County Sheriff's Office Homicide Division said on Sunday.
Officials also said the bodies of the victims showed signs of foul play and trauma.
"Unfortunately, we’ve seen this before in homicide, where an individual will commit murder and then try to set a fire inside of the home to cover their tracks," said Sergeant Ritchie.
Gonzalez says at this point they are still working to identify a suspect in the case. Investigators are also working to learn if anyone else had been staying at the home.
Anyone who has information about the case is asked to call the Harris County Sheriff's Office.
