Early Sunday morning firefighters responded to a house fire in the Cloverdale neighbourhood and by the time they arrived the residents had made it out of the house safely. The fire was extinguished within a few hours, but a different threat emerged when the smoke cleared. Two neighbouring residents found extortion notes telling them to pay money to a cryptocurrency address and failing to comply would result in their homes being set ablaze. Other residents on the block were afraid to speak up citing fears for their safety.
