Colorado Red Cross Workers Head To California To Help Wildfire Victims

DENVER (CBS4) - Two American Red Cross workers from Colorado are on their way to California to help communities affected by wildfires.

One fire near Sacramento threatens 12,000 homes and has forced thousands of evacuations. Ten homes have burned.

Firefighters there were bracing for hotter temperatures and erratic winds, which won't help efforts to stop the fire that has burned through 137 square miles.
