Officials could not establish a timeline as to when a cause of death will be confirmed.

Phillip Skaggs Jr. and Christina Gregg, both 33, escaped from the mobile home with their 8-month-old infant, Natalia Skaggs.

They were treated for minor injuries at a local hospital.

Nathan was Skaggs's and Gregg's son, while Breonna and Patrick were Gregg's alone.

Cassie Karg was Skaggs's niece who was spending the night.
