According to RCMP the home was fully engulfed in flames when emergency crews arrived on the scene. No one was home at the time of the fire and no injuries were reported.
Police say that before the fire started two suspects were seen on the property where the fire occurred for about an hour prior to the blaze. The suspects are seen moving around the yard and close to the house.
