On the morning of January 17, 2022, a fire deliberately set in a two-story transitional home on St. Clair Street in Pontiac, Michigan, killed 19-year-old Brenden Andrews and 59-year-old Jeff Donnelly. Eleven adults were inside when the blaze spread quickly; several were trapped on the second floor and five occupants were injured, including cases of smoke inhalation and one broken leg.

Investigators say the fire was arson and are treating the scene as a double homicide. Authorities reported the second-story exit door had been deadbolted from the outside and surveillance video captured a shadowy figure moving through rooms in the house just before the fire began. No arrests or public suspect identifications have been announced; a reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

If anyone knew Brenden, Jeff, or had been near that St. Clair Street residence around January 17, 2022, please share what was seen or heard with the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office.
