EAST GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM)-Celebration! Cinema North is back to normal operations after burnt popcorn led to an evacuation.

It happened just before 9 p.m. Saturday. A theater worker says the popcorn popper jammed and the popcorn kernels started burning. When the fire alarm went off, guests started evacuating. They returned to their movies a short time later.
