DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Investigators are looking for the cause of a mobile home fire that killed a 63-year-old man and his two sons early Wednesday.

Richard Clayton, 63, and sons, Jevon, 10, and Sydney, 5, died in the fire, WRAL reported.

Tammy Clayton told firefighters she and her husband were awakened by the fire. Her husband told her to call 911, but the telephone wasn't working so she ran to a neighbor's house for help.

Flames were shooting through the roof when firefighters arrived.
