Three Found Dead in Suspicious House Fire

Three persons perished in an early morning fire on Saturday in the Hunters Creek subdivision and Orange county Sheriff’s Homicide investigators have said that the fire appears to be suspicious.

According to OCSO:

Shortly after 8:00 AM today, June 19, 2010, Orange County Fire Rescue responded to a report of a house fire at 14444 Estrella Drive in the Hunters Creek subdivision.  The call was made by a neighbor who heard an audible alarm at the residence and saw smoke coming from the home when he went outside to investigate.  While fighting the fire, which appeared to be confined to the rear portion of the residence, firefighters found the bodies of three people inside the home. They immediately notified the State Fire Marshall’s Office and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.

Orange County Sheriff’s Homicide investigators were summoned to the scene after the agency’s road units determined that there were elements to the fire scene that could be considered suspicious.

Homicide is, at this time, writing a search warrant so that they can begin a thorough investigation of the fire scene with the State Fire Marshall’s Office.

The victims have not been identified.

The investigation into the incident is ongoing and according to deputies, is in its early stages.
