CITYnews halifax / By Natasha O’Neil

Several roads were closed on Tuesday morning due to a Halifax Regional Police firearms investigation in Dartmouth.

Officials said that the search is happening in the 100 block of Albro Lake Road and is related to an ongoing case. Detectives from the integrated criminal investigation division, the emergency response team and east division are searching the home.

Due to the operation, police had closed Albro Lake Road between Sheridan and Slayter streets for both vehicles and pedestrians — it has since reopened.

Officers are asking people to use alternate routes allowing police to conduct the investigation.

This is a developing story. More to come.
