The house was empty at the time.
Through CCTV, police have now determined that two people were seen lighting what appears to be a firework and throwing it through an open window before flames could then be seen coming from the home.
“We’re relieved that no one was hurt, but the impact of this incident is still significant,” Cpl. Mansoor Sahak, media relations officer for the North Vancouver RCMP, said in a statement.
