New Brunswick RCMP are warning residents of southeast New Brunswick about a person carrying a firearm with "dangerous intent."
In an emergency alert issued Monday evening, RCMP said the individual was last seen in the Salisbury area. In a subsequent social media post, RCMP added the individual was also seen in the Moncton area. They did not provide a description of the suspect.
RCMP believe the person is driving a silver Ford F150, which is "mud covered."
It possibly has a Nova Scotia licence plate, numbered HDC 958.
Police are asking anyone who believes they've seen the individual to call 911 immediately.
A city councillor is suggesting the City of Calgary do an external review of how its operations and council decisions are being impacted by false information spread online and through other channels. Coun. Courtney Walcott said he plans to bring forward a motion to council, calling for its support for a review. He said he's not looking for real time fact checking but rather, a review that looks back at the role misinformation played on key issues. Walcott cited two instances in 2024 where factually incorrect information was circulated both online and at in-person meetings regarding major city projects: council's decision to upzone much of the city, and the failed redevelopment proposal for Glenmore Landing. "Looking back on previous years, looking back on major events and finding out how pervasive misinformation and bad information is out there and it's influence on all levels of the public discourse is really important," said Walcott.
