A Thursday-morning fire that lit up the frame around a grocery store loading dock was similar to one set outside a dollar store in March, officials said. “It is pretty close to the same style of fire,” Orillia’s deputy fire chief Jeff Kirk said. Firefighters responded to the Metro grocery store on Front Street shortly after 10 a.m. to find the loading dock’s wooden border and foam bumpers burning. “We had to rip (the bumpers) down because of the expansion of the fire,” said Kirk, noting that the burning material was quickly extinguished. An evacuation of the store was unnecessary as the fire was contained to the outside of the loading dock, he added. The fire caused about $3,000 in damages, and is being treated as suspicious. The case has been handed over to the OPP for investigation. “There was no evidence of any incendiary devices at the scene,” Kirk said. Police said arson was the cause of a short-lived fire at the rear of a Memorial Avenue Dollarama store on March 12. There, too, the frame and bumpers around the loading dock were set ablaze.
