Two Youth Charged After Baddeck Bus Fire

Two young people were arrested this week after RCMP say a school bus was set on fire in Baddeck over the weekend.

The Mounties say they got a report at around 12:45 Saturday afternoon about a fire at a school bus garage on Shore Road.

They say the report came after officers investigated break-in’s and damage to a number of buses in the same place earlier that morning.  

One of the young people was arrested on Sunday and the other on Monday.

They’ve both been released on conditions ahead of a court appearance at a later date, when they’ll be facing a charge of Arson.
