ALLENDALE TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Dec. 17, 2022) – What is being called a “suspicious” fire claimed the lives of two persons in an Allendale residence on Saturday night.
According to Ottawa County Sheriff’s Detective Captain Jake Sparks, deputies and other first responders were dispatched to the home off of Mount Blanc Lane, in a subdivision near the Lake Michigan Drive-48th Avenue junction, just after 6 PM. They found the house full of smoke, and in containing the situation, they discovered the bodies of the two deceased persons.
State police fire investigators were called to the scene to assist deputies, Allendale Township Fire crews and Grand Valley State University Public Safety officers in looking into this incident. No cause of the fire, or what led to the deaths of the two persons, were immediately determined, but Sparks did admit in a department statement that, “Investigators do believe the fire to be suspicious in nature at this time.”
No names were immediately disclosed.
