Codiac RCMP are continuing their search for a man in his twenties who threatened to do harm to himself, and is beleived to be carrying a firearm.
Officers were called to Shamrock Avenue at around 5:30 this morning, after reports of a man doing damage inside a house. Another person inside the home was also assaulted.
He reportedly left the home and was seen going into a shed where a firearm is believed to have been stored, before he headed into the woods.
