A man found guilty in a case involving a fire at a North Okanagan gas station, will return to court in two weeks to fix a sentencing date.

A jury found 46 year old Donald Jeffrey Thomas guilty of one count of theft over $5,000 after a seven-day BC Supreme Court trial in Vernon.

The charge stemmed from a fire at the Super Save gas station in Enderby in November 2012 which caused extensive damage.

Thomas was the store’s manager at the time.
