MUSKEGON, Mich. — Crews in Muskegon responded to Safe Harbor Great Lakes Marina after an employee reported a fire there on Monday.

Muskegon Professional Firefighters Union (MPFU) say firefighters on one of its trucks detected heavy smoke from a large storage building on Lakeshore Drive.

We’re told additional support was requested from neighboring jurisdictions, including Muskegon Township, Muskegon Heights, North Muskegon, Norton Shores and Egelston Township.

A number of people with boats in storage building 3 ended up driving out to see what damage occurred.

"My wife called me, told me there was a fire at Great Lakes I work just a couple miles away so I got in my car and made my way over," said Matt George who has a boat in that building.

Officials say no injuries were reported following Monday's fire.

The cause remains under investigation.
