A 45-year-old Saskatoon man is facing an arson charge after allegedly sparking a grass fire in the city on Saturday.
According to police, officers were called to Diefenbaker Park at 11:30 a.m., when they found a large fire burning and spreading to nearby train tracks.
A witness told police two men were seen walking away from the fire, and police said the officers quickly located the pair.
