Nova Scotia man faces multiple child pornography charges

By CityNews Halifax Staff

A Boylston man is facing multiple charges for child pornography offences.

According to RCMP, officers executed a search warrant at a home on Antigonish Guysborough Road.

Mounties said they were tipped off after a cloud-based storage application notified law enforcement that child pornography was being stored on their service.

Police said they arrested 36-year-old Patrick Mallon who faces charges of possession of child pornography, transmitting child pornography, making child pornography and voyeurism.

Mallon was released on conditions and is scheduled to appear in Antigonish Provincial Court in June.
