Steve McCausland of the Maine Public Safety Department says the bodies are those of a man and three children. Their identities were not released and the state medical examiner is at the scene to assist in removing the bodies.
McCausland says the mother of the children who perished in the fire Saturday morning escaped the blaze and was taken to a hospital.
Investigators from the state fire marshal's office are at the scene, on Dow Road in the Penobscot County town.
