Halifax Regional Police is requesting the public’s assistance to identify the suspects responsible for a weapon offence on New Year’s Day in Dartmouth.
On January 1, 2013, at 1:36 a.m., officers responded to a weapons call that occurred on a Metro Transit bus travelling on Wyse Road. A man and woman were involved in a verbal altercation with four younger women when the man produced what was described as a handgun and pointed it at the heads of two of the victims.
