On June 16, 1989, Carrie Hartney, 25, and her two children, Pamela, age two, and Benjamin, eight months, died in a deliberately set house fire at 1283 Andrus Street in Akron, Ohio. The blaze was ruled arson after investigation, and other people in the house that night escaped, but Carrie and the children did not survive.

The Akron Police Department investigated, and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation has listed the case in its cold case database, but the crime remains unsolved and the motive is unknown. Family members and the community continue to seek answers about who started the fire and why.

Does anyone with information about the Andrus Street fire or those involved that night have tips to share with investigators?
