The Prince George RCMP is currently investigating an arson that occurred on the Mackenzie Lookout Forest Service Road over the weekend…

Police say employees were last at the site on Friday afternoon; when they returned to the site on Tuesday morning, they found three of their machines burned beyond repair. The estimated cost of the damaged equipment is approximately $1,000,000.
