2 churches burn in 'very suspicious' fires in southwestern Ontario

Two southwestern Ontario churches roughly 10 minutes away from each other went up in flames early Sunday morning, prompting an investigation by local and provincial police into "very suspicious" fires.

Shortly after midnight, emergency crews responded to the first fire at South Caradoc United Church on Muncey Road, in Strathroy-Caradoc.
Strathroy-Caradoc Police Service (SCPS) say they found the structure fully engulfed in flames.

SCPS and Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are investigating what caused the fire.
