A Nova Scotia man who was the subject of an emergency alert last week has been charged with numerous firearms offences, the RCMP announced Monday.
On Friday, police issued an emergency alert warning people in the Colchester County community of Bible Hill to shelter in place as a “dangerous man with a firearm” was allegedly seen on foot in the area.
The man was later arrested, and police say there no shots fired and no injuries.
