  • Man arrested in Fort Nelson arson

A 41-year-old man has been charged in connection with a June 15th arson in Fort Nelson.

Mounties say they were called to the scene where a heavy-duty tow truck and a car were allegedly set on fire in a secure tow lot. 

Mounties say they obtained evidence showing an individual climbing onto the tow truck's cab just before it caught fire, and a fence had been cut to gain entry to the lot.

A man is now facing charges including break and enter, arson, and two counts of uttering threats relating to the case.
