    DELTA, B.C. - Police are investigating what they believe are arson fires in Delta, B.C.

     

    A statement from the Delta Police Department says fire fighters requested police attend a scene on Saturday night.

     

    Crews had been called to north Delta where they put out fires in four garbage bins in the 7000 block of 120 St.

     

    Just an hour later, the fire department told police of another bin blazing a few blocks away.

     

    Acting **. Ciaran Feenan says police believe the five incidents are related and the fires were all set by the same person or group.

     

    “At this time we believe the five incidents are related and were set by one individual or one group of individuals.” says Acting Inspector Ciaran Feenan. “While the fires were minor in nature and there were fortunately no injuries, we do take incidents like this seriously.”
