One of the two witnesses chased a suspect and tried to extinguish some of the flames
Nanaimo RCMP want to speak to two unidentified people who talked to officers responding to fires set intentionally along the Nanaimo Parkway on Tuesday.
Police had already issued a request for witnesses, and are now asking to hear from this particular pair — one of whom is known to have chased a suspect and also tried to extinguish some of the flames.“Investigators are urgently attempting to locate these witnesses, as they may have evidence that is key in supporting charges against the suspect,” said Reserve Const. Gary O’Brien.
