A fire in Chestermere has left a family homeless.
Arson investigators are working to determine the cause of the flames that engulfed a rural house around 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
Crews were on scene for several hours.
Three people, a dog and a cat escaped the home by the time crews arrived.
However, a man in his 40s was detained by RCMP at the scene for his own safety, and was taken to a Calgary hospital to be assessed.
