The Battle Creek police department responded to the 600 block of Linwood Ave on a report of a double shooting late in the day on Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2015.

 

Two men from the Grand Rapids area came to the 600 block of Linwood Ave to possibly buy a vehicle. Once they arrived at the location, the possible vehicle buyers were assaulted by three men who were attempting to rob them.
