No foul play suspected in house fire that left two dead

By ANDY SEVILLA

Hays County officials said Wednesday afternoon no criminal or suspicious activity is suspected behind an early-morning residential blaze on Jan. 7 that left two middle-aged persons dead just outside of San Marcos.

“The circumstances at the trailer home were such that an exact cause of fire is still under investigation,” Hays County Fire Marshal Mark Chambers said Wednesday in a statement. “We have additional work before a definitive cause can be determined. We have not found any signs of an intentionally set fire at this time.”
