Police didn’t find anyone playing with fire outside the Downtown Activity Centre, but instead ended up arresting one man for causing a disturbance and being intoxicated in public.

RCMP were called out Jan. 11 at 11:30 p.m., in response to someone spinning fire, which is lighting something on fire and twirling it in a circle, outside the activity centre on Shuswap Street.

On arrival, police found the person with the fire had left the scene, but instead found numerous intoxicated youths and adults who were attending an all-ages hip-hop show at the centre.

The man who was arrested was held in cells until sober.
