LEXINGTON, N.C. — We’ve now learned the three people who died in a Lexington house fire were two women and a little girl , according to the Davidson County Fire Marshal's Office.

The investigation into the cause of the fire on Kimberly Lane resumed Wednesday morning.

Deputy Fire Marshal John Webster told WFMY News 2 that smoke alarms were inside the home, but they were not working.

Fire crews arrived around 4:30 a.m. Tuesday to find a motorhome engulfed in flames next to the house, with fire already spreading to the house. Five people were asleep at the time. Two of them made it out. Three did not.

Firefighters got the little girl out of the house and rushed her to the hospital, but she did not survive. Webster said the two women were already dead when crews reached them.
