Carter Wright Neal, 18, of Beaver Bank, is charged with a total of 18 offences including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Careless Use of Firearm (two counts), Possession of Weapon for Dangerous Purpose (two counts), and Possession of Property Obtained by Crime (six counts). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He had a first court appearance on July 12 at Dartmouth Provincial Court. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police recovered the six firearms taken from the home and executed search warrants at a residence and on a vehicle associated to the people arrested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While investigating the break and enter, officers observed multiple firearms unsecured and unsafely stored inside the home on Barrett Rd. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This observation prompted a new investigation. Officers seized 28 firearms as part of this investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
