A structure fire in Kelowna on Saturday morning has been deemed suspicious.

The Kelowna Fire Department said crews were dispatched to a residence along Ridgeway Drive, not far from the Kelowna Golf and Country, following multiple 911 calls just before 9 a.m.

When crews arrived shortly, they found a fenced and open-air shed that contained garbage cans on fire.

The fire was quickly extinguished, though the fire department said the shed sustained significant damage.
