If you want an example of how valuable working smoke alarms are for your home, just talk to a family of 5 that escaped a blaze overnight with no injuries.  The fire was in a home located at 12260 Shady Knoll Drive, just south of Southeastern Parkway and 126th Street.  Fire personnel responded to the call at 2:25am Wednesday.

Fishers fire officials say they worked hard to keep the blaze from spreading to other homes in the neighborhood, leading to minimal damage to homes next door.  It took firefighters about 40 minutes to bring the fire under control.

Fire investigators remained on the scene early Wednesday morning.  No dollar amount of the damage is available, but fire officials say the home structure and contents were a complete loss.
