The Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency assisted in the investigation, and a male teenager was arrested the following week. He is scheduled to appear in court in Sandy Bay on May 7.
His name and age cannot be revealed as per the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
RCMP continue to investigate the blaze as well as other structure fires in Sandy Bay since October of last year.
It’s believed the fires at four houses and an outbuilding were deliberately set.
“The investigations include determining whether there is any potential link between the incidents,” the RCMP news release stated. “Saskatchewan RCMP’s General Investigation Section is supporting Sandy Bay RCMP with these investigations.”
Residents had previously expressed their concerns about the fires and the lack of a fire truck in the community.
Anyone with information about any of the fires is asked to call Saskatchewan RCMP at 310-RCMP, their local police service or to inform Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or at saskcrimestoppers.com.
