Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety (KDPS) officers responded to fires at 2 vacant houses early Wednesday morning, called in about 10 minutes apart.
The first — on Humphry St — was called in at 1:36 a.m. and knocked down in 15 minutes. The second — a house on Sherwood Ave — was reported at 1:44 a.m. and took 3 times as long to bring under control, according to KDPS.
Both crews were met with heavy smoke and flames, but no one was hurt.
The KDPS Fire Marshall is investigating both incidents.
