On April 8, 2023, Calhoun County Sheriff's Office deputies assigned to Pennfield Township were dispatched to a breaking and entering in progress in the 200 block of Hopkins Street.
When deputies arrived, they could hear a subject inside of a vacant residence. Deputies made contact with a 25-year-old Battle Creek man. Upon contact, the suspect fled from the residence northbound into Bailey Park Apartments property.
With the assistance of Springfield Township deputies, Battle Creek Police Department and Calhoun County Consolidated Dispatch, the suspect was contained in a perimeter.
Deputies on scene were soon alerted by citizens that the suspect was attempting to break into a vehicle on the property.
The suspect was taken into custody and lodged at the Calhoun County Jail without further incident.
