RCMP seek assistance in identifying would-be arsonist

Cranbrook RCMP is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying a possible arsonist.

On February 26, Cranbrook RCMP was called to a reported arson attempt in the 100-block of 7th Avenue S.  Investigation revealed that an unknown suspect attempted to light a residence on fire.

The homeowner was able to chase away the suspect with a baseball bat.  Thankfully there was no damage to the residence and no one was injured.

“While fleeing the residence, the vehicle the suspect was driving was damaged. We are currently seeking a 2018-2021 black Toyota Camry with a missing passenger side mirror and a damaged windshield.  If you see the vehicle, or know who the registered owner is, we ask that you call 250-489-3471,” said Cst. Katie Forgeron.
