Olds RCMP said Monday at approximately 10:30 p.m. on April 19, they responded to a structure fire with the Olds Fire Department.
“Upon arrival, it was determined that the building had been unlawfully entered and there was a vehicle on fire in the garage. The fire investigator attended, and at this time, the fire is considered to be suspicious,” police said in a news release.
RCMP also said the building was spray painted.
Police arrested a youth near the scene, but they were later released without charges. The investigation continues.
Olds Fire Department said it received a call of heavy smoke at a garage next to the offices of the Olds Association of Community Living near 51st Avenue and 51st Street.
