"I just got off the phone with the family spokesperson of the four victims found dead in a Petersburg home on Harding Street after crews respond to a fire. He says Pauline Wilkins, Wilkin's daughter Vicki Ansar, Ansar's daughter Tainque Chavis, and Chavis' two year old son Deldari were killed. Our prayers are with the family Police say they are treating this as 'if it were a homicide,' but are not calling it a homicide investigation."

UPDATE: Petersburg Police say there is evidence of foul play in a weekend house fire where four people were found dead, and the case is now being investigated as a homicide. Alexander Roosevelt Hill, Jr. has been identified as a person of interest in the investigation and you must consider him armed and dangerous!
