MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY’S DAILY NEWSPAPER

MADISON — Investigators have found no ties between a fire on Saturday that killed one and displaced two and a string of suspicious fires in the area earlier this summer, but there are still a number of unanswered questions. Authorities completed an autopsy on the man who died at 66 Forest Pines Road, investigator Keith Rodenhiser from the state fire marshal’s office said on Monday, but they had yet to positively identify him.

Once that happened, he said, they planned to release a statement. They also have yet to determine the cause of the fire. “The fire is presently open and under investigation,” Rodenhiser said. “We have no indications at this point that it was connected to any of the other Madison area fires.” The working theory, he said, is the fire started in the kitchen while the three people in the house were still in bed.

Nobody hurt in fire in Jackson Sunday afternoon BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

JACKSON — A house fire on Juniper Way took crews from around the Mount Washington Valley several hours to put out on Sunday. The call for a “fully-involved house fire”

came in at 12:45 p.m., according to Doug Jette of the Jackson Police Department, and fire crews from Bartlett, Conway, North Conway and Redstone all responded to help the Jackson Fire Department. It took until almost 5 p.m. to put the fire out. No one was hurt in the blaze, he said. “Fortunately the house was empty. The owners

were out of town.” The owners — according to tax records, Leo and Roberta Lappin — could not be reached Monday. Fire investigators were still on the scene Monday, according to the fire marshal’s office. The Jackson Fire Department didn’t return calls by press time.
