RCMP asking for help in identifying suspects after a series of suspicious fires in central Richmond

RCMP are asking for help identifying suspects after a series of suspicious fires at a residential building in central Richmond.

Fires were reported in the 5600 block of Arcadia Road.

Mounties say in a news release the fires were set November 16th, November 19th and December 29th.

The first time, they allege a small appliance fan being used to air out the building was set on fire, then someone set a 20-foot boat ablaze in the underground parkade, and then there was a fire in a stairwell.

RCMP say all fires have been deemed suspicious, however the motive remains unclear and it is also unclear if the fires are all related.
