Garland county deputies are calling a deadly house fire suspicious. They found four bodies in the home and another body in a separate home on the property.
Joey Gentry is the son of the victims. Gentry just found out his parents, Ed and Pam Gentry, and his brother Jeremy all died when their house went up in flames. Deputies have not identified the fourth body found inside the home.
Deputies found Joey’s grandfather, Edward Gentry, Sr., dead in his nearby home.
A family friend, Paul Hamilton responded to the incident. "We were friends. We were getting ready to leave for the deer woods and this happened."
Someone also set a truck on fire in Hot Springs and the registration came back to the same address where the fires happened.
Right now deputies say it is suspicious and sad. "I couldn't even begin to imagine what they are going through right now. It is upsetting," said Lt. James Martin with the Garland County Sheriff’s Department.
The mobile home fire was near Lake Hamilton High School on Highway 70.
