BELGRADE — A Belgrade family is without a home after their duplex caught fire early Saturday morning.
Central Valley Firefighters say the fire started around 8 a.m. Saturday on 11th Street in Belgrade, causing significant damage to the home.
Family members, including five children, were able to make it to safety.
Officials say they are still investigating the fire’s cause, and it appears to have started in a garage.
