NEWARK, N.J. (AP) Essex County prosecutors have released the names of three children and a teenager killed along with an adult in a fast-moving apartment fire in New Jersey.

But the cause of the blaze that broke out early Friday in Newark remained under investigation Saturday night.

Two siblings 2-year-old Javena Joseph and 3-year-old Javens Joseph were found dead in a third-floor apartment. Their parents and two other children were able to escape.

The man whose name has not been disclosed was found in another third-floor apartment, along with 5-year-old Angela Williams and 17-year-old Nazir Blackstone.

Fire officials say the blaze started around 1:40 a.m. Friday in a vacant house next door and quickly escalated. Four other buildings were damaged in the fire; about 15 people were displaced.
