An early morning fire at Bree Manor Apartments in East China Township displaced 20 to 30 residents Sunday morning, prompting a swift community response. The Community Foundation of St. Clair County activated its disaster response fund to cover emergency needs like shelter, food, and clothing for the first 48 hours. Local organizations rallied to help: St. Clair High School provided temporary shelter, Blue Water Transit transported victims, and the St. Clair Inn opened its doors overnight. Officials confirmed no foul play in the fully involved blaze.
