Police seek witnesses to suspicious Christmas Eve fire in Prince George
Mounties in Prince George are looking for witnesses to a fire on Christmas Eve at the weigh scales on Highway 97 south.
The fire was reported about 6:20 a.m., and is being investigated as suspicious.
Emergency responders noted two pickup trucks leaving the area, but could not provide licence plate numbers.
Police officers are also looking into orange graffiti on a nearby container that says “good job McCreadie,” which they say may be related to recent impaired driving investigations, and believe the graffiti and the arson incidents are related.
Anyone who witnessed the fire or may have dashcam footage is asked to call police.
