CHASE, B.C. — Police in Chase are releasing more information about a suspicious fire at the community’s Royal Bank branch this past summer.

In the early morning hours of Aug. 12, Chase RCMP responded to a structure fire at the bank located at 746 Shuswap Ave.

The local fire department attended to extinguish the fire, but the building had already suffered extensive damage. 

Further investigation by police has determined the fire is suspicious in nature. A grey or silver hatchback, similar looking to a newer-model Honda Civic, was seen leaving the area immediately after the fire was set.

Chase RCMP are hoping to speak with the occupants of the vehicle or anyone who may have information regarding the vehicle.
