Investigators in Barron have identified the people killed in last week’s house fire.
The city’s police chief yesterday said 44-year-old Donald Albee, six-year-old Conner Albee and five-year-old Emily Albee all died in that fire last Thursday. Donald Albee’s girlfriend, the woman who owned the home, escaped with just minor injuries. An autopsy says it appears the children died from smoke inhalation. No one is saying what caused the fire.
