Westland apartment fire destroys 8 units

Firefighters battled a fire at a Westland apartment complex Friday morning.

Crews were called to Woodview Condominiums in the area of Central City and Newburgh around 5:15 a.m. on reports of a fire. When they arrived, they found flames coming out of the roof of the building.

An hour later, flames were still reigniting. Firefighters could be seen inside searching after the fire was eventually extinguished before 7 a.m.

"We lost eight units," Westland Fire Chief Darrell Stamper said.

No one was injured. The fire department is working with the American Red Cross to help the displaced residents.
