Police are looking for information about a deliberately-set fire in west Edmonton earlier this week.

Investigators have determined that the fire at the building, which was under construction, was deliberately set.

Damage is described as extensive.

At this time, police don’t believe the fire is connected to any other deliberately-set fires in Edmonton.
