The Butte County Sheriff's Office says the investigation into a fatal Nisland mobile home fire has been closed. Butte County Sheriff Fred Lamphere says while the investigation into the blaze did not turn up an exact cause, they do say it started in one of the home's couches.

Lamphere says investigators were able to rule out an electrical fire or foul play as the cause. Gerald Strebb, 59, died in the fire on Tuesday, likely due to smoke inhalation according to the sheriff's office.
