  • Arson in Green Timbers Park

Police in Surrey are investigating multiple fires set in Green Timbers Park early yesterday. 

Officers conducted foot patrols after a citizen reported a fire and they found several other blazes. 

Surrey fire service attended and was able to put out all the fires. 

Police say the fires in the park (at 146th Avenue and 100th Street) appear to be intentional and they're hoping anyone who might have video or who was in the area and has any information will call police.
