GRAND HAVEN, Mich. — Police shut down the Grand Haven pier on the 4th of July after reports of someone brandishing a firearm.

Ottawa County Central Dispatch Authority tells FOX 17 that the call came in just before 5 p.m. Tuesday.

The caller reported that someone on the pier had brandished a firearm.

Dispatch says officers with the Grand Haven Department of Public Safety responded to the pier but did not find anyone with a gun.

The department did decide to close the pier for the rest of the holiday out of an abundance of caution.

The pier is expected to reopen Wednesday, July 5.
