A man is facing charges after police had to subdue him with a Taser during a dispute at a Halifax apartment building Sunday evening.
Halifax Regional Police responded to the building in the 5500 block of Cornwallis Street around 7:30 p.m. after receiving a report that a man armed with a knife was in the hallway and had threatened a tenant and a security officer.
Police say the man, who is also a tenant, refused to put down his knife and officers had to subdue him with a Taser.
The man was arrested and taken into custody.
He is due in court Monday to face charges of assault with a weapon, uttering death threats, and resisting arrest.
No one was injured.
