A 37-year-old man was scheduled to appear in New Minas provincial court Thursday
A man from Wilmot, N.S., is facing weapons and drug charges following a disturbance Tuesday morning.
Kingston RCMP were contacted about a disturbance outside an organization on Main Street in Kingston around 10:40. It was reported that a man had been yelling from inside his vehicle at two women standing outside.
He then fled the scene, according to a news release from the RCMP.
Following an investigation, police found the 37-year-old has breached his undertaking.
The next morning, an off-duty member of the Middleton detachment saw the suspect walking along Highway 1 in Wilmot. On-duty officers from the Kingston detachment responded and arrested the man without incident.
The release said the man possessed a pellet handgun, methamphetamine and counterfeit money.
The man was remanded into custody and was scheduled to appear in court in on Thursday.
He faces charges of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, possession of counterfeit money, possession of methamphetamine and two counts of failing to comply with an undertaking.
The RCMP said the investigation is ongoing.
