Brampton Arson Pattern Continues: Tow Truck Set Ablaze Sunday May 11 Between 2:45 and 4:45 a.m. Near Rutherford Road South and Orenda Road; No Suspects Named

Peel Regional Police are investigating another tow truck destroyed in a deliberately set overnight fire near Rutherford Road South and Orenda Road in Brampton between approximately 2:45 a.m. and 4:45 a.m. Sunday, according to Brampton News. The article reports the fire was deliberately set and adds to an ongoing pattern of tow truck arsons in Peel Region this year; police have not released suspect information.

Operator takeaway

The pattern is now consistent enough that the question is when, not if, another GTA-area tow truck burns. Move every truck inside tonight, confirm motion-detection lighting works, and document the next 30 days of yard activity for your insurance carrier.
