Investigators believe a fire in Halifax's north end Tuesday morning was intentionally set.
Emergency crews were called to Mulgrave Park just before 9 a.m. where they found a townhouse on fire.
One woman was taken to hospital.
The blaze extensively damaged a four-unit building and ten people have been displaced. The Canadian Red Cross is helping them with emergency lodging and other basic supplies.
A GoFundMe page set up to help the four affected families has already raised over $33,000.
The arson investigation by Halifax Regional Police is in the early stages. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 902-490-5020 or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
