The suspects fled from the area in an unknown vehicle driving eastbound from the Aylmer area.
Police say “smoldering discarded clothing” was initially found close to the burning home and investigators determined that the fire started with a large amount of gasoline that exploded.
It is believed that one of the suspects involved likely sustained serious burns that would have required medical treatment.
The investigation is ongoing.
Police are asking members of the public who may have information concerning the fire or any individuals involved to contact investigators at 519-765-3144.
