PICKEREL, Wis. (AP) — Authorities say the youngest victim of a house fire that killed six people in a small northern Wisconsin town was a 10-month-old girl named Zoe M. Munoz Soto.  The Langlade County Sheriff’s Office released the identity of the victim Wednesday, a day after a fire engulfed a house in Pickerel, about 200 miles (321 kilometers) northwest of Milwaukee.  Two adults and three other children died in the fire. Sheriff’s officials say it could take days or weeks to identify the remaining victims. Langlade County Coroner Larry Shadick says two other people escaped.  Investigators don’t suspect anything suspicious about the fire. It’s unknown what started it.
