RCMP Investigate Suspicious Fires

Fire officials say three fires last night near Oak bay and Rollingdam are suspicious and may be connected. Oak Bay Fire Chief George McLeod tells CHSJ news the first fire was at a building on the intersection of highway 127 and highway One. The building was vacant at the time but fully engulf in flames by the time the fire department arrived. McLeod says 12 vehicles in a garage were destroyed by the second fire.

Mcleod says a car was also stolen from the Rollingdam area and set on fire in the Elmsville area. Meanwhile, RCMP are investigating a fourth fire this morning at the Kent Building Supplies in St. Stephen. A car in the parking lot went up in flames around 9:30am. No word on the cause.
