Wonder what all this is about?

A suspect has been arrested in connection to a series of arsons at three Masonic halls in Metro Vancouver, police say.

Vancouver police issued a statement shortly after 1 p.m. Tuesday announcing a 42-year-old man was arrested in Burnaby. Arson charges are being recommended to Crown counsel, police say.

The arrest comes after fire crews and police were called to three separate blazes at Masonic halls Tuesday morning. Two were in North Vancouver while the third was in Vancouver.

"This was a joint collaboration with Vancouver police and our partners at the North Vancouver RCMP," said Const. Tania Visintin in the news release.

"Officers were able to swiftly arrest the alleged suspect and we’re thankful that no one was physically harmed."

The suspect was arrested near North Fraser Way and Marine Way, police say.

"This investigation unfolded very quickly," says Sgt. Peter DeVries of the North Vancouver RCMP. "We have a very good working relationship with our partners at Vancouver Police. By sharing information and co-ordinating our efforts we were able to move swiftly as new information became available."

One fire was reported at about 7 a.m. near Lonsdale Avenue and 11th Street East in a multi-unit building that has a Masonic hall. Images from the scene showed flames coming from the windows above a street-level business.
