A suspicious fire broke out around 5:30 a.m. Thursday morning in the Deauville area of Sherbrooke.
Emergency services were requested at 3300 chemin Édouard-Roy for the fire in two vehicles. We are talking about two tractors
specifies the spokesperson for the Sherbrooke Police Service (SPS), Martin Carrier.
Fortunately, no one was injured. We are talking about material damage.
The damage, according to Martin Carrier, is quite limited. The fire department acted quickly and was able to control the flames.
The fire is considered suspicious. A forensic identification investigator and technician and a fire prevention inspector will be on site during the day to begin the investigation.
Although several suspicious fires have broken out in Sherbrooke in recent weeks, the spokesperson for SPS believes that it is too early to try to establish links between the events. This morning's case, at first glance, has no connection at all with the other cases involving the SPS
he specifies.
