Mounties investigate early morning arson

File # 2023-956

On April 23, 2023 just past 6 AM, RCMP are asked to attend a suspicious fire located at Donaldson Drive and 76th Avenue in Grand Forks. Upon arrival, the fire was out, but a porta potty located on the property was completely destroyed. The fire had spread to the outside wall of a trailer but fortunately did not go inside.
