Police are investigating a suspicious vehicle fire that happened at a business in Grand Manan, N.B., last week.

Grand Manan RCMP and local fire crews responded to a report of a vehicle on fire at the business on Bancroft Road on Feb. 13.

The force adds the fire started soon after the pickup truck left.

The boom truck was badly damaged and the cab of the truck was destroyed in the fire.

A member of the New Brunswick Fire Marshal’s office attended the scene and is helping with the investigation.
