Police are investigating a string of fires lit in North Delta overnight.

The unknown suspect or suspects caused damage to a sign near a recreation centre in the 7800 block of 112th Street, targeted vehicles in the 7300 block of Minster Drive South and again in the 11600 block of 72A Avenue.
In one case, Brooks said, the vehicle fire had spread to two others nearby when crews arrived.
“There was substantial property damage, but fortunately no one was injured,” she said. “That said, we’re taking [this] seriously.”
Investigators will be canvassing neighborhoods and speaking with local businesses near the location of each fire.
Anyone with information on any of the fires is asked to call the Delta Police Department.
