The Serious Incident Response Team is investigating after New Brunswick R-C-M-P shot and killed a man following a robbery and standoff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Saturday, R-C-M-P say they responded to a report of a robbery of a business on Mountain Road in Moncton, where they say they found a man carrying a firearm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The man allegedly fled the business, stole a car, and entered a nearby residence, before setting the house and a car on fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the man attempted to flee the house, R-C-M-P say an officer shot at the man, who was pronounced dead on the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though it’s been a mild hurricane season so far, the drought that plagued much of Atlantic Canada over the summer could make the impact of future storms worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Droughts can cause tree roots to weaken, leaving them more susceptible to falling or breaking during high winds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Droughts can also cause soil to dry and harden, making it more difficult for water to penetrate the surface and leading to a risk of erosion and flash flooding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atlantic hurricane season lasts through the end of November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nova Scotia burn ban has been lifted across the province, except for Annapolis County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ban will remain across Annapolis County due to the ongoing Long Lake wildfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daily burn restrictions are still in place across the province, and apply to open fires like campfires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wildfire season typically ends October 15, and burn restrictions will continue until then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
