Inverness County District RCMP has charged a man with firearms-related offences after a report of a confrontation with vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On September 3 at approximately 11:40 a.m., officers responded to a report that a man had confronted a truck driver as the truck passed a residence on Ashfield Rd. The man was in possession of a firearm and was reportedly unhappy with speeders on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were no reports of shots fired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officers from Inverness County District RCMP general duty, Police Dog Services, the Emergency Response Team, and the Crisis Negotiation Team attended, as well as a remotely piloted aircraft system (drone) operator. Officers observed the man in the yard at a home with a chainsaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After a crisis negotiator spoke with the man, he was safely arrested outside the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Robert Anthony Isadore, 45, of Orangedale, is charged with Careless Use of Firearm, Contravention of Regulations, Possession of Weapon for Dangerous Purpose, and Possession Contrary to Order. He had a first court appearance on September 4 at Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court. He remains in custody pending future court appearances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The investigation is ongoing and included the execution of a search warrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Out of an abundance of caution, Ashfield Rd. was temporarily closed as officers were initially on scene. It has since reopened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
