Police are asking residents to keep their porch lights on tonight, lock sheds, and not give anyone with bad intentions a place to hide. They are looking for the person or persons responsible for a string of fires in downtown Owen Sound last nights, and they do not yet have a suspect. Chief Sornberger asked that residents be vigilant and call 911 if anything looks or sounds the least bit suspicious.
The fires locations included a shed, a townhouse complex, detached homes and the MacKay building. There is no indication at this time that anyone was targeted in what is now being treated as arson.
Ten people were sent to hospital, but all have been discharged. The police chief credited emergency services and agencies like United Way, Victims Services and Red Cross for their excellent work for victims of the fire.
Some people have had total losses, and all offers of help are being coordinated through 211.
