Edmonton, Alberta – The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) is asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect connected to a suspicious fire that occurred at a residential property in southeast Edmonton earlier this year.
According to police, the incident took place in the early morning hours when a male suspect allegedly broke into an attached garage and deliberately set it on fire. The blaze quickly spread to the home, which was occupied by a family, including young children. Fortunately, all occupants managed to escape safely and no injuries were reported. However, the fire caused extensive damage, destroying the residence and impacting a neighbouring property. (Edmonton Police Service)
