  • Home set on fire in Richmond

Mounties in Richmond are asking for the public's help identifying a suspect of alleged arson.

They released surveillance footage of a man pouring flammable liquid on the front door of a home before setting it on fire around 3 A-M on March 27th.

Police say a 23-year-old resident of the home was able to extinguish the fire, leaving the home with what they say was relatively minor damage.

Mounties describe the suspect as a middle-aged Asian male wearing a dark surgical face mask, glasses and a baseball cap, and say he may be linked to a dark coloured, four-door Hyundai or Toyota Corolla.
