MOUNT UNIACKE: Pointing what looked like a real firearm at a watercraft operator has landed a 43-year-old Mount Uniacke man with a court date.
East Hants RCMP Const. Preston Burns, the Community Policing Officer, said on July 22 police received a complaint of a firearm being pointed at a 19-year-old man while on the water.
“While operating a watercraft on a lake in Mount Uniacke, the 19-year-old came near a floating dock owned by a 43-year-old Mount Uniacke man,: said Const. Burns.
“The younger man reported that the older man pointed a handgun at him before he was able to speed off.

“Upon further investigation, it was determined that it was an extremely realistic BB gun replica of a firearm,” he said.
He said the man was arrested and is due in court at a later date.
Const. Burns said the man is facing several firearm related charges including pointing a firearm.
