Suspicious fire at Little Church

Police are investigating another suspicious fire. This time at the World’s Littlest Church.
    The Drumheller Fire Department and RCMP responded shortly after 10 a.m. on Thursday.  
    Staff at the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce called in the fire. Chamber manager Heather Bitz explains that twice a week, DARTS clients come out to clean the church, and Thursday morning called to let them know the Bible at the front of the church was smoldering.
    Bitz and Chamber services coordinator Marley Henneigh came out to investigate and found the book on fire.
    The Fire Department responded. The fire had damaged part of the interior of the church and firefighters had to cut a hole into the floor to make sure the fire was properly extinguished.  
    The investigation continues.
