Yellowknife RCMP are investigating a fire at Coyote’s Family Steakhouse that police say happened just before midnight on Sunday, November 8.

An RCMP news release sent out on Thursday said police were called to the restaurant because of a triggered burglar alarm. When RCMP arrived, firefighters were already on scene.

Police said the fire, which was contained to the kitchen, is “being investigated as suspicious” but a cause hasn’t been identified.

The restaurant had smoke and water damage from the sprinkler system, RCMP said.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Yellowknife RCMP at 867-765-3900 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
