From The CBC:Three people have been arrested in connection with a fire that destroyed a Hells Angels bunker last week in Sorel-Tracy, Que.
Provincial police say the suspects face charges of car theft, conspiracy to commit arson and arson.
Two men were seen leaving the area in a blue pickup just after a tanker truck, which had been reported stolen, smashed into the fortified building and exploded Oct. 18.
The fire attack hasn't yet been linked to organized crime, police said.
Three other fires in different buildings were also reported Saturday night in the town, about 75 kilometres northeast of Montreal.
Some police and observers of Quebec's criminal scene have expressed fears the attack could be a sign of a renewed biker war in the province.
The fire followed the recent seizure of more than 1,000 tonnes of explosives and the arrests of three men with links to biker gangs.
