A Streamwood resident suffered nonlife-threatening burns after fire broke out in a home early Wednesday morning, officials said.

Streamwood firefighters called at 1:36 a.m. to the residence in the 0-100 block of East Pine Street arrived to find an attached garage of a single-family home engulfed in flames, as well as a vehicle on fire in the driveway.

Two adult residents had escaped the home by the time firefighters got to the scene, but reported that several pets remained inside. Firefighters rescued one dog and two guinea pigs. Both residents were taken to St. Alexius Medical Center in Hoffman Estates for treatment, according to the Streamwood Fire Department.
