The Lethbridge Police Service has arrested a 45-year-old woman after two fires were set at a downtown building on March 5, 2026, in Lethbridge, Alberta.
Officers were called to the Melcor Centre at approximately 6:30 a.m. to check on a report of someone trespassing at the property. When police arrived at the downtown facility, they found two fires had been started and quickly took a suspect into custody.
During the arrest, officers seized two lighters from the woman. Audrey Rae Small Legs is now facing two counts of arson with disregard for human life and two counts of failing to comply with a probation order.
This is the second time the suspect has been charged with arson in early 2026. In January 2026, she was charged with three counts of arson after a grass fire was set in a southside coulee.
