Now the owner has offered a reward.
鈥淲e are offering the reward to encourage anyone with information on the burglary and arson to come forward,鈥� said Mark鈥檚 Aldergrove owner Adam Bekar. 鈥淭he Mark鈥檚 in Aldergrove is a small business, locally owned and operated. The arson has had a significant impact on our employees, neighbouring businesses, and the Aldergrove community at large.
