ST. STEPHEN, N.B. – Two Nova Scotians face numerous customs and criminal charges after officials found several prohibited firearms in a vehicle at an international border crossing in New Brunswick earlier this month.
In a news release, the Canada Border Services Agency says that on April 5 customs officers searched a vehicle entering Canada from the United States at the St. Stephen Ferry Point, N.B., border entry.
Officers found three 9-mm handguns, four overcapacity magazines, two 10-round capacity magazines, a conductive energy weapon, pepper spray and 2.9 grams of loose cannabis.
The agency says 63-year-old Scott Livingstone and 61-year-old Joyce Livingstone from Conquerall Bank, N.S., were arrested and detained.
The pair were released on conditions after an April 7 court appearance and are scheduled to return to court in Saint John, N.B., on July 5.
They face three counts of smuggling, two counts of possession of a prohibited firearm and four counts of carrying a concealed weapon, among a string of other charges.
