LEBANON, MAINE, Maine — A 46-year-old woman was killed in a fire Sunday evening, the Maine State Fire Marshal's Office says. The Fire Marshal's Office has identified the woman as April S. Patch, 46, of Lebanon.
According to the Fire Marshal's Office, crews responded to the scene of the fire around 5:45 p.m. Sunday evening at a single-family home near Route 202 in Lebanon.
The fire was in an apartment above the garage at the residence. Patch was pronounced dead at the scene.
An autopsy by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner showed the cause of death to be smoke inhalation.
The Maine State Fire Marshal's Office is investigating the cause of the fire, who says there are test results pending and a cause of the fire has not yet been released.
Lebanon Fire Department also assisted on the scene of the fire.
A previous version of this story said Patch was from Robbinston, but has been corrected to say she was from Lebanon following a correction from the State Fire Marshal's Office.
