Halifax Regional Police (HRP) have kicked off their #WantedWednesdayHfx program, which will see the police force release information on three people every week currently wanted on warrants.
The HRP say that as people are caught, their photo and information will be removed from their page.
“Whether these people turn themselves in, or police receive information on their whereabouts from the public, the goal is to locate and arrest each person who has been featured,” the police wrote on their website describing the initiative.

The three individuals included in this week’s list are Eric Roger Latham, 33, Kartel Brandon Lee Pye, 26, and Craig Alred Dawson, 41.
