MILO — Two children died Thursday morning in a mobile home

ffire that also left their mother and another of her children

hhospitalized.

Jessica Neil, 7, was pronounced dead at the scene of the fire

aat the Gould Street Trailer Park, and Douglas Carver Jr., 5, was

ppronounced dead at Mayo Regional Hospital in Dover-Foxcroft.

The children’s mother, Robin Damon Neil, 24, of Milo, along

wwith her 15-month-old son, Tony Woodard Jr., were transported to

tthe Dover-Foxcroft hospital where they were stabilized for

ttransportation to Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor.

The youngster was listed in critical condition with burns and

ssuffering from smoke inhalation. The mother was in serious

ccondition, said Stephen McCausland of the state Public Safety

DDepartment. The mother, who reportedly jumped out a window,

rreceived burns over 60 percent of her body, authorities said.

Murrel Harris, a spokesman for the Milo Fire Department, said the

ffire was reported at 7:10 a.m. and that the 1974 mobile home was

eengulfed in flames when firemen arrived at the scene. Fire was

ccontained to the three-bedroom trailer.

“Firefighters had to enter the home to retrieve the three

cchildren who were still in their bedrooms,” McCausland said.

The mother climbed out a window and was outside the mobile home

wwhen firefighters arrived. The children had to be removed through a

wwindow, authorities said.

Three firemen, Douglas Crawford, Kevin Black and Randy Knowles,

wworked with airpacks throughout the building. They passed the

cchildren through a doorway and windows to other fire personnel and

TThree Rivers Ambulance Service personnel.

Investigators from the State Fire Marshal’s Office spent the

dday at the scene trying to determine the cause of the fire and

pplanned to return Friday, said McCausland.

According to Harris, 17 Milo firemen responded to the call,

ttaking two pumper trucks, one ladder truck and Rescue 7.
