The Red Cross is helping an Evansville family after an early evening fire caused extensive damage to their home.
A fire department news release says Evansville firefighters were called to the 100 block of Millard Court about 7:30 p.m. Wednesday for a report a flames showing from an attached garage.
Firefighters knocked down the flames in about ten-minutes, but the fire had spread to the home and attic.
The occupants escaped before first responders arrived. The home is considered uninhabitable. Firefighters say siding from a neighboring home was also melted off by the heat.
The cause is under investigation, but is not considered suspicious.
