apartment fire

Battle Creek police and Calhoun County Sheriff's deputies were called to the address for a man threatening people with a gun just hours before a fire that appears to intentionally set.

Some residents had to be rescued from their balconies in a suspicious Kalamazoo apartment fire.

The Battle Creek Fire Department has deemed the Monday evening fire that began in an apartment complex hallway as suspicious.

As investigations into the cause of a massive fire at Village Inn Apartments Sunday night in Battle Creek continue, several businesses, organizations, and individuals in the community are rallying to help the nearly 80 victims who are now left without a home.
