The pornography involved text message conversations and private message conversations on a social media site about sexual activity involving children. The conversations were between a 45-year-old Halifax man and other adults who notified authorities.
Just after 9 a.m. on May 17 Police conducted a search of a residence in the 5600 block of Atlantic Street and seized a number of electronic devices for forensic analysis. A man inside the residence was arrested without incident.
