ARLINGTON — Investigators have ruled out suspicious causes in a fire that killed two brothers near Arlington in January.

Detectives are wrapping up their case. There was no evidence of a crime, officials said Thursday. There was not enough information to pinpoint the exact cause of the fire.

Brian and Charles Wiley, 58 and 63, died of smoke inhalation.

The Jan. 19 fire destroyed their mobile home on Club Way, near the Jordan Bridge over the South Fork Stillaguamish River.

Neighbors said the brothers had lived in the home for about a decade.
