HALIFAX — RCMP in Halifax say a man is facing child pornography charges after officers searched a home in the neighbourhood of Lower Sackville.

Investigators say police executed a search warrant at the home on Hilltop Drive on Thursday and found computers that contained child pornography images.

The Mounties say a 41-year-old man was arrested at the home without incident.

He’s facing charges of making available child pornography and possession of child pornography.

The man was released from custody and is expected to appear in Dartmouth provincial court on March 10.
