A father was killed in a fire in Maine early Friday morning, but his wife and their two children were able to escape.
Investigators from the state Fire Marshal's Office responded to a house fire on Moe's Cove Road in Industry around 2 a.m.
A family of four lived in the home. The mother and two children, ages 6 and 10, were able to make it out safely after waking to the sounds of a smoke alarm. The father, however, did not make it out.
Officials said he is believed to be 46-year-old Ryan Hallman, who lived in the house with his wife and two kids. His body has been taken to a local funeral home where it will be examined by the state medical examiner's office.
