A raging fire swept through a home on the 700 block of Long Run Road in Lamar Twp., taking the lives of 34-year-old Sarah B. Stoltzfus; four boys, ages 11, 10, 5, and 2; and two daughters, ages 8 and 6, according to state police.

The exterior propane tanks outside the home did not explode, according to state police. They believe a leak from an interior propane tank may have started the fire. The incident is still under investigation.
