The Codiac Regional RCMP is asking for information from the public that could assist with the investigation of a suspicious fire in Riverview, N.B.

On December 11, 2019, shortly after 2:50 a.m., the Codiac RCMP and the Riverview Fire Department responded to a fire at West Side's Bar and Grill restaurant on Coverdale Road. The business was not occupied at the time, and nobody was injured.

The investigation has determined the fire to be suspicious in nature. Surveillance video shows a male near the business shortly before the fire started. The person appears to be wearing jeans and a dark hooded sweatshirt.

Anyone who recognizes the person in the photo, or who may have witnessed anyone in the area prior to or after the start of the fire, is asked to contact the Codiac Regional RCMP at 506-857-2400.
