Indiana Fire Marshal

South Bend Fire Department Assistant Chief Derrick Erquhart says it could be days, weeks or months before investigators determine what caused a fire at the historic Lafayette Building Monday. A city official says the building had been secured.

The state fire marshal is still investigating, but says the fire that killed six children on Jan. 21 is not arson.
