The co-owner of a Maine lumber mill has died from injuries he sustained during a fire and explosion at the facility, bringing to three the number of fatalities.
Alden J. Robbins died Thursday from injures he suffered in the May 15 fire at Robbins Lumber in Searsmont, according statements Friday from Maine Gov. Janet Mills and the Robbins family. The blaze sent plumes of black smoke into the sky and necessitated a response from hundreds of firefighters to a rural part of the state.
