The Mounties and the Provincial Fire Marshal are looking into a house fire on Queensway Way in St. Stephen early this morning.
RCMP and firefighters from St. Stephen and Calais responded just after midnight.
The only person living in the two-storey home saw the fire in a porch area at the rear of the home, but couldn’t put it out and went to find help from his neighbours.
The cause of the blaze is considered suspicious. Anyone with information is asked to contact the St. Stephen RCMP or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
