Durham Regional Police are asking for video recorded near Salem Road and Fifth Concession Road between 1 and 3 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 12, after a house fire in Ajax.
Officers arrived at about 1:40 a.m. and directed traffic while Ajax firefighters worked to put out the blaze. Police say they received no reports of injuries and are treating the fire as suspicious.
