CHILLIWACK -- A Chilliwack family with two young kids has been burned out of their home after a petty theft followed by arson.

The home in the 45000-block Roseberry Road was deliberately set ablaze Saturday night by a suspect who had broken in and stolen items from inside.

Taken before the fire were a flat-screen monitor and computer, a PlayStation 2 and a Nintendo Wii. Two long-barrel rifles were also stolen.

Worse, the fire did extensive damage to the family's house and its contents.

Police are appealing to the community to help them track down the culprits, who broke in sometime between 6:15 and 10:30 p.m. Saturday.

"The family . . . need your help to solve this crime, and bring those responsible to justice," said Chilliwack RCMP spokeswoman Const. Lee-Anne Dunlop.

Call police at 604-792-4611, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or go online at www.chilliwackcrimestoppers.ca if you have any information.
