The Guelph Police Service is investigating two fires that occurred overnight.

The first happened around 4 a.m. Wednesday in the area of Ontario Street and Wood Street.

Crews from the Guelph Fire Department arrived to find a sign that police investigators say was set on fire.

It was quickly extinguished.

Then a couple of hours later, crews were called to a business in the York Road and Victoria Road South area.

Investigators say some shrubs against a building were set on fire.

They say a nearby resident was able to extinguish most of the fire before crews arrived.
