ALBION, Mich. — A 51-year-old Albion has been arrested for allegedly shooting and killing someone Thursday.

According to the Albion Department of Public Safety, Calhoun County Dispatch Authority received a call from the 51-year-old man at about 7:15 p.m. He told them that he had just shot a woman in the 500 block of West Broadwell Street.

When officers responded, the 51-year-old man was waiting for them and surrendered.
