More Suspects Named After Police Find Four Charred Bodies After East Travis County Fire [UPDATED]

DEL VALLE, TX -- Travis County Sheriff's Office detectives have named two additional suspects in connection to the death of four people whose charred bodies were found with possible gunshot wounds.

"Travis County Sheriff’s Office detectives have identified two additional men as persons they strongly suspect are victims of homicide in an incident that took place at 8301 Linden Rd. sometime in the early morning hours of September 8, 2016," law enforcement officials wrote in a news advisory.

They identified those two individuals as Jacob Derr, 25, and Brian Lee Satterfield, 41, both of Bastrop.

The two "...are suspected of being at the scene of the incident along with Matthew Aaron Barber who is a resident of the address," officials said. "

TCSO officials were called in to assist Travis County Fire Rescue crews shortly before 6 a.m. at the scene of the fire. Fire officials dispatched detectives after determining there was at least one deceased person inside the burned home, TCSO officials said.

Eventually, officials found four bodies. The corpses are currently at the Travis County Medical Examiner's Officer undergoing testing to determine a cause of death. But even before the official ruling, detectives are treating the case as homicide, officials said.

"All four victims have wounds inconsistent with a fire," officials reiterated. "Detectives worked late into the evening last night and have been busy today following up on leads."

The sheriff's office urged anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers a call at (512) 472-8477.

From Sept. 8:

DEL VALLE, TX -- Four people found dead after a fire in an East Travis County home Thursday morning may actually be homicide victims with apparent gunshot wounds, law enforcement officials said.

Firefighters arrived at the home in the 8200 block of Linden Road in Del Valle -- just three miles from the Circuit of the Americas racetrack site -- just before 6 a.m. A nearby resident called the fire department to report smoke emanating from the house, a Travis County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman said at a subsequently staged press conference.

Kristin Dark, the spokeswoman, said injuries "inconsistent with a fire" found on the victims are likely gunshot wounds. She identified a possible victim, 26-year-old Matthew Aaron Barber, who lives at the home. Yet Dark conceded it's not clear if Barber is a victim, but officials have confirmed he lived at the home.

The other victims were not identified.

"We're asking anyone who knows Matthew, and who knows what might have been going on at this address to call us," Dark said at the press conference. “Neighbors have described vehicles moving back and forth, we’d like to know what kind of vehicles you are seeing? When do they travel? Do you know anyone driving those vehicles? Whatever we can find out is going to help us in this case.”

This is a developing story. Patch will update as more details are made available.

Those with information are urged to call the Travis County Sheriff's Office at 512-472-8477.
