 RCMP in Two Hills County say fires that burned down a house and a church are being investigated as suspicious.

On July 24, RCMP were called to a house fire just before midnight in the New Kiev area south of Two Hills, near Range Road 133 and Warwick Road.

While first responders were on scene, a second fire was reported approximately three kilometres away at a church.

Holy Trinity Church was completely destroyed and both fires have been deemed suspicious by a fire investigator.

RCMP say no one was injured as both buildings were vacant at the time.

Investigators are looking to speak with the owners of two trucks spotted in the area at the time of the fires.
