A 31-year-old woman is facing weapons charges after Halifax Regional Police responded to a complaint Friday evening.
Police say they were called to the 3300-block of Barrington Street at 7:15 p.m. for a report of a woman waving a knife in the area. According to police, when they arrived, the suspect, who lives in the area, entered her own home.
HRP contained the area and after 30 minutes of negotiation, the suspect was taken into custody.
Police say the woman has been charged with assault with a weapon, threats, possession of a weapon and causing a disturbance.
She is being held in police custody until a court appearance Tuesday.
