A busy Monday evening for fire crews in Kelowna and West Kelowna.

Shortly after 5:00 pm - West Kelowna Fire Rescue responded to multiple small fires along a trail on the north side of Mount Boucherie. 

Crews found 5 separate fires burning along a 1-kilometre stretch of trail.  All were small and quickly contained. 

The fires are under investigation - but are believed to be human-caused. 

And in Kelowna just before 6:00 pm - firefighters were called to a structure fire near the intersection of Dilworth Drive and Leckie.

The building, which was heavily damaged, was part of the Brent's Grist Mill heritage site. No-one was found inside. 

RCMP and fire investigators are looking into the cause.
