Arson suspected in Tsawwassen after 3rd suspicious fire in one week

DELTA (NEWS 1130) – A third house fire in Tsawwassen in a single week is ramping up concerns about a possible arsonist.

Police were called early Thursday morning to a report of a house fire, and it was fully engulfed in flames by the time officers arrived.

The fire is the third time in a week an abandoned home slated for demolition has been damaged or destroyed by flames.

Delta Police spokesperson Cris Leykauf says the fires are “very concerning.” She says police are actively pursuing tips and have devoted “considerable resources'” to the investigation.

Police say the third house had already been damaged in another fire Monday that destroyed a neighbouring home, and heavily damaged another next door.

So far there aren’t any suspects, but investigators say they are looking into several tips.
