Police and fire fighters were called to Thorold home last week for a fire, everyone got out

The owner of a Thorold home has been charged with arson after a fire last week.

Emergency crews were called at around 6pm, last Thursday, to a house fire on Devine Crescent.

Police found everyone inside had made it out, but one person was treated for burns.

Police eventually found circumstances leading them to believe the fire was suspicious, and the following day the property owner, 29-year old Navdeep Singh was charged with one count of arson.

He was released from custody with a future court date.
