Fire destroys a house on Friday, April 4, 2014 outside Danville, Pa.  The early morning farmhouse fire in north-central Pennsylvania killed three children, ages 2 to 13, authorities said.  The Northumberland County coroner identified the victims as 13-year old Daniel Dissinger, 7-year old Gavin Dissinger and 2-year old Arthur Dissinger. The deaths were ruled accidental. The children's mother was at work at the time of the fire, Kriner said. He said a 13-year-old boy and 14-year-old girl managed to escape from the home and were treated for injuries that weren't life-threatening. Another child was staying at a friend's house overnight, he said. The home had almost completely collapsed by the time the first crews arrived, officials said.
