Antelope County Attorney Joe Abler identified them as 25-year-old Victoria Lee of Missouri Valley, Iowa, and 30-year-old Gabino Vargas of Omaha.

Abler also says 33-year-old Matthew Hinrichsen, of Ewing, has been charged with arson and two counts of first-degree murder and remains jailed. 

The Nebraska State Patrol says a 911 call early Saturday morning reported a domestic dispute. Another call reported a fire at a mobile home in the same area.

The two bodies were found in a bedroom of the home. Another man escaped the flames, and he was released after questioning.
