Police and fire investigators in Abbotsford, B.C., are looking into a multi-vehicle fire that may have been arson.
Asst. fire Chief Jeff Snider said crews were called to the blaze at Overseas Autobody at 2342 Windsor St. shortly after 11:30 p.m. Saturday.
No one was at the facility at the time, but a passing motorist spotted the flames and called 911.
Snider said crews were able to quickly knock the fire down but that 15 vehicles were damaged, with 10 to 12 of them sustaining major damage. They are complete write-offs.
