Two people from Kalamazoo are behind bars in connection to the murder of two people in a Kalamazoo Township apartment in late 2020.

Investigators believe that the two victims were in their apartment, though neighbors didn’t call the police after hearing gunshots. Officers were finally called the next morning after neighbors found shattered glass outside of the apartments on Nazareth Road.
