Man Threatens Woman
As usual, the story's headline obscures and makes invisible the subject and the object of the verb in question. Who is mysteriously pulling guns? At whom? The location is less relevant than the humans involved, yet no people get top billing. Odd.
Gun pulled at party
Halifax Regional Police are looking for a man who had a handgun when he threatened a woman at a party Saturday night. The incident happened at about 11:30 p.m. at a home on Emerald Crescent in Spryfield, police said.
The man with the handgun was gone before officers arrived.

Threats Against Woman Result in Arrest, Discoveries
The following story appears in today's Chronicle-Herald. As it turns out, this woman may be lucky to be alive given that the police found a gun and drugs in the man's possession. Those are two items that never mix well. Going beyond just a threat, the man allegedly assaulted her as well. Full story here.
Halifax Regional Police turned up more than they expected during an investigation into a threat allegation against a Lower Sackville man Sunday.
Just before 6 a.m. Sunday, a Clayton Park woman called police to report that she had been threatened by her ex-boyfriend.
During an investigation into the alleged threat, Halifax Regional Police determined that the man both threatened and assaulted the woman.
That led officers to the man inside a Riverside Drive residence in Lower Sackville. Police then obtained a warrant to arrest the man in his home. They executed the warrant at about 5:45 p.m. Sunday.
