NBC 7’s Elena Gomez reports from the home on Prospect Avenue, Friday August 15, 2014.
A Lakeside family escaped a devastating house fire overnight.
The second floor of the home was on fire when firefighters arrived around 12:45 a.m. to the house on Prospect Avenue near Lemon Crest Drive.
All five members of the family and their pets were able to get out of the home safely.
There was a mix of materials on the second floor that allowed the fire to spread quickly, fire officials said.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
