Montreal police (SPVM) is investigating after a vehicle was set on fire early Friday morning in downtown Montreal.

The force received a 911 call at 2:30 a.m. about the incident in a parking lot on Lespérance Street near Ontario Street.

“Firefighters were called to the scene,” said Véronique Dubuc, a spokesperson with Montreal police. “They quickly brought the fire under control.”

She notes that the vehicle is a total loss, but there was no damage to the surrounding property.

“According to preliminary information that police officers have, a suspect was observed near the vehicle when the fire broke out,” said Dubuc. “He fled on foot before police arrived.”
