Ladner resident's car torched
Delta Police forensic examiners are investigating an arson case involving a Ladner resident's vehicle.
According to Delta Police, the victim heard a popping sound close to 4 a.m coming from outside his home in the 4600 block of Kelly Pl. on Saturday (March 24).
When he went to investigate, the rear tire on the family's vehicle, a 2010 Chrysler Sebring, was on fire.
Police said the owner put the fire out, and while doing so heard someone running away from the scene.
Delta Fire and Emergency Services attended to fully extinguish the fire, and a Delta Police K-9 unit was dispatched to try and pick up a trail of the suspect.
Police said damage to the car is likely significant enough to write it off.
