The Ypsilanti Township Fire Department responded to anapartment hallway fire Wednesday afternoon. A light fixture in the hallway on the 4th floor of an apartment buildingin the 1500 block of East Clark Road caught fire Wednesday afternoon. The fire set off a sprinkler head located directly above it.

*** Blog Editor’s Note:  Tell us what you think of the coverage by annarbor.com and the comments from the Ypsilanti FD.  Of course, the sprinkler didn’t “cause” the damage, but rather it saved the apartment from experiencing a much larger fire, where the damage would have been much worse, and could have possibly caused injury or loss of life. ***
