Richmond County District RCMP members were called to a residence on Loch Lomond Rd. in Loch Lomond following a report of a home invasion involving an assault.

On Saturday, May 8, at approximately 2:36 a.m., police attended a residence and were told by the lone occupant that two men, one known to him and both wearing face masks, had kicked in a door and threatened to kill him while kicking and punching him. Both men had then fled in a vehicle and were believed to be in a residence nearby.

Police immediately attended this residence and arrested the two men without incident.

Daniel James McMullin, age 58, of Loch Lomond, and Kyle Sparrow, age 37, of New Waterford, have been charged with:

· Assault

· Uttering Threats to Kill

· Break and Enter to a Residence

McMullin is facing additional charges of Possession of a Prohibited Weapon and Unsafe Storage of a Firearm, in relation to a weapon that was located incidental to arrest and not believed to have been directly used in this event. Both men have been released from custody on conditions and are scheduled to appear in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court on June 28 at 1:30 p.m.
