Officials: No Foul Play in Fatal Wyoming Fire
Investigators say they do not believe foul play was involved in a house fire that killed a southern Wyoming man and displaced his wife and three children.
Firefighters called to the home southwest of Laramie early morning found the structure fully engulfed in flames. Four people had escaped the fire, but a fifth was unaccounted for.
Firefighters found the man’s body in the burning home.
The 59-year-old man’s name has not been released.
Sheriff Aaron Applehans tells The Laramie Boomerang there’s no indication of criminal behavior associated with the blaze. The Wyoming State Fire Marshal is investigating.
