Edmonton police have laid arson charges against a woman and are searching for another suspect after a Hui’s Wontons Chinese Restaurant caught fire on March 23.

Firefighters responded shortly before 6 p.m. to the blaze at the restaurant at 3338 Parsons Road.

Crews were able to extinguish the fire, but extensive damage was caused to the restaurant.

No one was inside at the time, police said.

On April 8, police arrested and charged Hui MacArthur, 55, with arson — damage to property and arson for a fraudulent purpose.

MacArthur was released on a promise to appear and is scheduled to appear in court on June 22.
