No one was injured after an apartment building in Muskegon caught fire Saturday morning, says the Muskegon Heights Fire Department. The incident took place around 9:45 a.m. when the department received calls that people were inside a burning building. First responders arrived to see heavy flames coming from the second floor, resulting in requesting more assistance. Officials say that Police Chief Maurice Sain who was already in the area came to help by going inside to escort those on the first floor out of the building. They also add that Sain's "selfless action" gave the Fire Department a chance to focus on evacuating the second floor. It took over an hour to subdue the fire with help from the Norton Shores Fire Department and the Muskegon Charter Township Fire Department.
