Halifax robbery suspect takes scenic route

It wasn’t the greatest escape route: a suspected thief was nabbed by officers in Halifax after he tried to paddle away.

Police responded to a break and enter call at a residence near an inlet called the Northern Arm at around 2:40 p.m. Wednesday.

The caller said the offender had fled in a red canoe.

A civilian allowed officers to borrow a boat to give chase but the suspect had already come ashore at a nearby park.

Police chased after the man on foot and took him into custody.
