Man found dead in Rogers house fire IDed

The Hennepin County medical examiner's office has released the name of the man found dead after a Rogers house fire last week.

He was 40-year-old Scott Robbe, who lived at the home.

Robbe's body was found inside the home last Thursday. Fire crews arrived to find the house engulfed in flames but were unable to get inside because of the intensity of the flames.

Authorities believe the fire had been burning for a few hours at the secluded home, which was surrounded by trees.

The state fire marshal's office continues to investigate the cause of the fire.
