Allendale, MI (WGHN) – Four people are facing charges after an alleged home invasion and assault at an apartment near Grand Valley State University.
The Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office says it happened Saturday morning around 11:30 on Pierce Street. Deputies say a 19-year-old man was inside his apartment when three men allegedly broke in and assaulted him. The suspects also told the victim they had a firearm.
