A mother and her 12-day-old son have been identified as the victims of a fatal fire on New Year’s Day in Bennington County. 

Nicole Grogan, 22, and her son Oliver Stratton died in the fire at 1337 Chunks Brook Road in the town of Sandgate.

The cause and manner of their deaths is pending.

Three other people were injured. Two of the victims of the fire are still in the hospital. A third person was in a different part of the residence and treated and released for injuries not related to the fire.
