Man barricades himself in Dartmouth apartment

Members of the Halifax Regional Police Emergency Response Team were called in to help after a man barricaded himself in an apartment at 14 Jackson Rd. in Dartmouth on Monday.

Police say that just before 4:30 p.m., officers saw a man walking down the middle of Pinecrest Drive yelling and screaming. They recognized him as someone having a warrant out for his arrest for failing to appear in court.

When the officers tried to stop the man he ran into the apartment building, so they went to the unit he was in and asked through the door to come out, police said in a release.

Police allege that the man threatened to kill the officers with a knife, at which point the emergency response team was contacted.

At 9 p.m., police had obtained a warrant to enter and search the apartment and slid it under the door. The man came out a couple minutes later.

Police says officers found a large knife inside the apartment when they went inside to do their search.

Kyle Tyson Clayton, 28, of Dartmouth has been charged with two counts of uttering threats, failing to attend court, obstructing a police officer and two counts of breaching a recognizance.

He was scheduled to appear in Dartmouth provincial court Tuesday,
