TORONTO — Surveillance video released by police of an arson at a Toronto MP’s home shows a lone suspect pouring fuel on five vehicles and setting two on fire before abandoning the lit-up gas can in the driveway.
Liberal MP Salma Zahid says her car and another vehicle were set on fire early Thursday outside her Scarborough home.
Police released the video today as they appealed for the public’s help identifying the suspect.
The footage shows a masked and hooded suspect emptying a red gas can on the front of five vehicles parked in the home’s driveway.
