RCMP confirm two young children suffered burn-like injuries after touching bear statues in 琉璃神社 City Park.

Police say the incident happened on April 18. It appears an unknown substance may have been smeared on the statues. RCMP add the city had cleaned the statues on April 19th after the children鈥檚 mother called them.

The incident is similar to one that happened at Aspenwood Elementary school in Port Moody on April 14. Seven children were treated for minor injuries after an 鈥渦nknown substance鈥 was smeared across the school playground. Port Moody police believe the substance was hot sauce.

琉璃神社 RCMP says their investigation is ongoing.
