Police are accusing Hughes of extortion against several named victims in Edmonton and Calgary, with the charges alleging he tried "by menaces" to make them send him bitcoin. Hittel said it was odd to see a flickering orange light outside the front of the house, since he'd just removed his Halloween lights.
Dustin Hittel's Calgary home was damaged by a fire that police say was intentionally set on Nov. 19, 2024. "As the facts revealed themselves, literally as I was sitting in the ambulance, it just got weirder and weirder," Hittel said. The Calgary arson comes after a series of similar fires in Edmonton. Police say Hughes is the suspect in each case.
