Bay St. George RCMP are looking for the public’s help after a vehicle fire in Piccadilly. Police were called to the parking lot of the Our Lady of Fatima catholic church on Main Street shortly after 12:30 Monday morning. Cpl Jolene Garland says a truck was on fire and while the blaze was put out by firefighters, the vehicle was destroyed. Evidence suggests that the fire was intentionally set. A set of footprints was observed in the snow that led from the vehicle and continued into a wooded area behind the church. The footprints eventually led back onto the Main Road where it is believed the suspect was picked up by a motorist. Bay St. George RCMP asks area residents to check for any possible surveillance footage and to report any suspicious activities around the time of the arson.
