Police have arrested and charged a man residing in Shubie Park Campground in Dartmouth for breach of probation and possession of child pornography.

On July 27 at approximately 8:20 a.m., Kevin Richard Barker, 46, was found to be in breach of his probation order not to be in public parks where persons under the age of 16 could be present. This order stemmed from a prior conviction with the Calgary Police Service where Barker was charged with possession of child pornography.

During the arrest, investigators seized Barker’s vehicle and electronic devices. The search of these items led police to charge Barker with possession of child pornography.

Barker is scheduled to appear in Dartmouth provincial court today.
