The Lethbridge Police Service is asking the public for surveillance or dash camera footage to help identify suspects after two vehicles were set on fire in Lethbridge, Alberta, on February 5, 2026.

The incident occurred around 12:30 a.m. in an alley along the 400 block of 20 Street North. Both vehicles were completely destroyed and the flames damaged a nearby house, though no injuries were reported at that time.

Police have confirmed the fires were set on purpose and are treating the case as an ongoing arson investigation. This appeal for help follows other recent fires in the city, including two residential fires that took place over the first weekend of March 2026.

One of those fires, occurring on March 1 in the 100 block of Blackfoot Boulevard West, resulted in one person being hospitalized for smoke inhalation. Earlier this year, a woman named Audrey Rae Small Legs was also charged with arson for a separate grass fire that occurred in the city.

Residents with any information are encouraged to call the police at 403-328-4444 and reference file 26002292. Anonymous tips can also be shared through Crime Stoppers to assist the investigation.
