Knife-wielding Nova Scotia man faces several charges

By CityNews Halifax Staff

Kings District RCMP are investigating an incident in which a man allegedly pulled a knife on two Kingston residents.

Mounties say they responded around 9:30 p.m. on July 13 to a report of a man, who was in possession of a knife, threatening people at a home on Shawn Drive.

RCMP officers say at the scene they learned that two people, a man and a woman, arrived at the home when the man began threatening the residents.

The man retrieved a knife from his vehicle and allegedly pointed it towards one of the victims and continued making threats against her.

The man and woman departed the area when one of the victims called police.

Later that evening, RCMP officers located the man at a home on English Mountain Road in Casey Corner and safely arrested him.

The man was held in custody overnight.

Travis William Brown, 34, of Casey Corner, has been charged with uttering threats (two counts), possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and failure to comply with a release Order.

Brown will appear in Windsor Provincial Court today.
