Ten people were killed in the actual fire on 5 August. I would have thought there would be more news as to the cause and so on by now.
Anyone know anything?

This article says the fire broke out on the porch. 2:30a. Does not say whether it was arson.
You’ve got 13 dogs and 13 people inside what, according to Zillow, was a roughly 1,500 sf house.

I was just thinking about this the other day. There’s something suspicious about this fire. That’s the same square footage as my house and I can’t imagine 13 people and 13 dogs living or staying in it with two bedrooms and one bathroom.

Exactly. It isn’t like they stopped by to visit or the dogs were outside. They were all in there in the middle of the night, right?

Although I think a few were supposedly visiting, I agree they were all in the house at the time of the fire.

Right. But no cause made official yet. I think that’s what OP was asking, right?

Yes. It is a major investigation, the largest mass-casualty event in the area in decades. Strange there is so little in the months since.
If anyone hears anything, I would appreciate a heads-up.
Thanks to you all.

I watch Channel 16 WNEP every day and almost zero coverage since the fire itself.
