A 23-year-old man from Coderre, Sask., will appear in provincial court in December on arson charges after three separate bale fires were set over the Thanksgiving weekend.
Gravelbourg RCMP charged the man after fires were set in quick succession beginning at 4:30 p.m. Oct. 9 in an area about 20 kilometres northeast of Gravelbourg.
Police estimate between 20 and 25 round bales were destroyed. No other damage or injuries were reported.
The man faces four counts of arson, with the fourth charge relating to a fire at an abandoned farm house about two km south of Coderre on Aug. 6. He also faces other charges related to violations of court ordered conditions.
