Someone’s been setting fires inside parked cars in Halifax and police want to figure out who.

The arsonist stole small items from two vehicles on August 7 and started fires inside them by lighting paper. One vehicle was on Oxford Street, the other on Yukon Street.

It happened again a few days ago on September 26, near the intersection of Young Street and Dublin.

Police have not released any details about a possible suspect, but they’re reminding drivers to keep anything tempting out of their cars and to lock all the doors.
