Man faces 32 charges related to break and enters

Investigators with the General Investigation Section of the Integrated Criminal Investigation Division have charged a Dartmouth man in relation to numerous break and enters in Halifax and Dartmouth.

Since December 1 detectives have been investigating a number of break and enters into private residences in Halifax’s south end and in Dartmouth. Items taken during the break and enters include electronic devices, computers, televisions, firearms, jewelry, credit cards, vehicle keys and money. Through the course of the investigation, evidence gathered led officers to believe there was one person responsible for all incidents.

Cole was in possession of a weapon and resisted officers during the arrest.

  • Eight counts each of break and enter
