Police arrested a man yesterday, Jan. 24, in connection with a shooting that occurred last November in Halifax.
On Nov. 3 at 2:15 a.m, Halifax Regional Police responded to several shots fired in the area of Robie Street and McCulley Street. A 48-year-old taxi driver was driving north on Robie Street with a male passenger when his vehicle was shot at from another vehicle. The suspect vehicle, a small silver car, fled the area and no one was injured during this incident.
Yesterday at 9:03 a.m., police arrested 24-year-old Shea Alexander Durnford in Fairview without incident. He was held in custody overnight and will appear in Halifax Provincial Court today to face numerous charges including two counts of attempted murder and two counts of assault with a weapon.
Also charged in this incident are Kirk Michael Wright, Everett Douglas MacNeil and Kyle Douglas Shipley.
Investigators are still looking for a fifth man in relation to this incident. On Nov. 15 a Canada-wide arrest warrant was issued for 26-year-old Andrew Jason Hudder. He has been charged with attempted murder (two counts), assault with a weapon (two counts) and nine weapons-related offences. He is described as a white man, six-foot-one, 165 lbs., with brown hair and brown eyes.
Hudder is considered armed and dangerous and police say members of the public should not approach him or try to take matters into their own hands.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Hudder is asked to contact Halifax Regional Police at 490-5020 or their local police department.
