Shelburne RCMP say a warrant has been issued for a man who was charged with abducting his baby in 2011. Corporal Nancy Mason says the Mounties are looking for 45-year-old Collin James Lawrence. He didn't show up to his Supreme Court trial earlier this week for child abduction. Mason says Lawrence isn't considered dangerous, but police are concerned and want to find him as quickly as possible.
Lawrence was arrested in 2011 near the New Brunswick border after allegedly taking his newborn child from its mother. He was released from jail on strict conditions and was scheduled for trial Monday. Police say they don't suspect Lawrence is in Nova Scotia and are pursuing a number of leads outside the province.
