The police presence at a high-risk incident that occurred throughout the day on Thursday at a property on Gunn Avenue in Mission has now been scaled back, and the fires on the property have been put out. Police no longer believe there is a threat to anyone on or around the property, and neighbouring residents have since been able to return home. Gunn Avenue remains closed to anyone other than local residents. Mission RCMP’s Serious Crime Unit has now taken conduct of the arson investigation, and investigators will remain on scene in the coming days. No one was taken into custody and there is no ongoing risk to the public.

Mission RCMP thank the community for their patience and understanding.
