One Adan Panzo has allegedly killed his two baby daughters in the State of Georgia, authorities have said.
Panzo reportedly set ablaze the car the children were in after an altercation with his wife on Saturday.
The tragic incident happened at Preston, an unincorporated community with a population of about 1000, in the southwest part of the Peach State near the Alabama border.
According to the state agency, the two girls were found dead inside the vehicle after the fire was put out.
He was arrested after an investigation showed he allegedly set the car on fire during a “domestic dispute” with his wife.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Panzo, 36, was charged with felony murder, malice murder and arson.
The Bureau also disclosed that Panzo is being held in Webster County Jail as the probe continues.
The children’s mother has not yet been identified.
“It’s really sad to hear that a 1-year-old and a 3-year-old lost their life,” a local told WALB.
“They’re not even out in the world just yet. They’re not even able to understand or comprehend what was going on. I couldn’t imagine what they were feeling during that situation,” he added
