Murray Wood: Of Easter bunny bells and Juicy Fruit gum
For Murray Wood, Easter brings to mind grandma's practical advice about repurposing, and some of life's little lessons.
Intentionally set fires led to evacuations at a local First Nation on Thursday night.
At approximately 10 p.m. on May 7, Battlefords RCMP were called to Sweetgrass First Nation for multiple calls of grass fires being set in several locations.
Upon arrival, the RCMP encountered several large grass fires burning and determined a number of residences had to be evacuated.
None of the residences were lost in the fires, however emergency services spent several hours ensuring the public was kept safe.
Witnesses indicated an ATV was observed in the area where the fires were set.
Battlefords RCMP are requesting anyone with information regarding these fires contact the detachment or Crime Stoppers.
