Sunday Morning

Date: Sunday, June 1, 2014 – 7:30am

At approximately 07:30, Barrie Police were called to a Hickling St address for a report of an explosion.

Police arrived with Barrie Fire and found a barbeque had exploded and slightly damaged the residence.

There were no injuries to the occupants of the residence and Barrie Fire determined the explosion was accidental.

Simultaneously, Police received a call for a large hog running down Hickling St. nearby the address where the barbeque had exploded. (BA14025064)

Police were able to “corral” the hog which was clearly a domestic pet.

Police located the hog’s residence and returned him to a grateful owner and Barrie Bylaw will follow up with licensing issues.

It appears the two incidents are coincidental, however “Isabelle” the hog remains under suspicion!
