Police have located and arrested a 26-year-old man on Sunday who was said to have been carrying a firearm with “dangerous intent” in Moores Mills, N.B., prompting an emergency alert to be sent out to residents in the area earlier this week.
The Alert Ready message was issued Wednesday in the Moores Mills, N.B., area but ended later in the day, as police continued to search for the suspect.
“The RCMP would like to thank the public for their assistance,” police said in a statement on Sunday morning.
The alert warned nearby communities to remain inside with their doors locked while telling others to avoid travelling into the area.
Police said the suspect, 26-year-old Kody Hiltz, was described as wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans, and was travelling on foot, in the area of Highway 750 in Moores Mills.
