MUSKEGON HEIGHTS, Mich. — Crews spent the morning putting out a vacant house fire in Muskegon Heights Wednesday.
According to Lt. Bill Mastenbrook of Muskegon Heights Fire, the garage at the house -- located on the corner of Park Street and West Oakwood Avenue -- burned down. There was also significant damage inside the home.
The fire damage caused a gas leak, which then caused additional fire and damage. Fire crews needed to wait for a utility company to arrive on scene to shut the gas off so the fire could be put out completely. It was entirely out by 10:15 a.m.
Authorities confirm there were no injuries in the incident but do consider the fire suspicious and will continue to investigate the cause.
