Hamilton police release video of arson suspect

Hamilton Police have released surveillance video of a person wanted for setting fire to a car last week.

The video appears to show something sitting on the hood of the car while the suspect stands facing the passenger’s side window. Seconds later, the front of the car bursts into flames.

The fire happened on Mary St. shortly after 3:00 a.m. on January 26. The car was parked in front of a pair of homes that were involved in two separate shootings just a few weeks earlier.

Police say the investigation is still ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to contact Hamilton police at 905-546-2991.
