BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — The Battle Creek Fire Department (BCFD) is reporting that a fire took place at The Arbors apartment complex Wednesday morning.
Just before 9 a.m., fire crews were called to the complex at 400 Rambling Road, where a third-floor balcony was on fire at the rear of the structure.
The department says the fire was extinguished quickly, and the extent of the damage was contained to the balcony area.
