KALAMAZOO, Mich. - A Kalamazoo home was destroyed by fire overnight and it was the second fire at the home in just a few days.

Neighbors say the home was firebombed.

Police say that the first time the home caught fire, Monday, the residents were able to put the fire out on their own.  That was not the case Wednesday morning.

The home is in the 1100 block of Weaver Avenue.  Police are calling the fire suspicious, but are not yet calling it arson. Four people were in the home at 4:30 am when the fire broke out.  Everyone got out safely.

Anyone with information about the fire should call Silent Observer at 269-343-2100.
