SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – Smoke detectors are being credited with waking a sleeping family to a fire at their Sacramento home.

It was around 1:30 a.m. Wednesday when smoke detectors started going off at the home on Arbor Crest and Kelton ways.

The family managed to get out of the home as flames and smoke filled the garage. Firefighters were able to keep the fire from spreading to the rest of the home.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
