HALIFAX -- Meteghan, N.S. RCMP say they’ve charged a Digby County man for disobeying a court order after an incident on the water.

Police say it’s in relation to an incident that happened on the water in Saint Mary’s Bay, on Oct. 23.

On that day, police say they received a report of a boat steaming toward another, which had to maneuver to avoid collision.
