Structure Fire

On Sunday, August 7th, 2022, at approximately 1:15 P.M., officers from the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety responded to the 1000 blk of E. Vine St. for a report of a structure fire. When KDPS officers arrived, smoke was observed coming from the residence. 

KDPS officers were able to bring the fire under control within 10 minutes.  The structure was occupied, but the residents were able to self-evacuate.  No injuries occurred during this incident. 

The cause of the fire was a faulty clothes dryer and is under investigation by the Fire Marshal’s office.

Kalamazoo Public Safety would like to remind everyone to talk with family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year. 

Anyone having information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety at 337-8120 or Silent Observer at 343-2100

By authority of: Lt. Eric Reiber
