The cause may never be determined.

A father and two young children perished in a mobile home fire in Ohio Tuesday night.

Galion Fire Chief Phil Jackson identified the victims as father Jordan Stewart, his son, Connor, 5, and daughter Elizabeth, 3.

Their bodies were taken to Toledo for autopsies, the chief said told The Mansfield News Journal.

Galion firefighters will work with the state fire marshal's office to investigate the cause, but Stewart added that the cause of the fire may remain unknown.

"This is a terrible tragedy," Jackson said. "I feel horrible for the family. Any time you lose someone to a fire, it hits home hard."
