The Laval Police Department is asking the public for help to identify two suspects who attempted twice to set fire to a gas station located at 470  Chomedey Blvd. in Chomedey recently.

According to the LPD, on Jan. 26 not long after 5 am, the two suspects were spotted by a security camera set up at the gas station.
