There was a false sighting of the man wanted on a Canada Wide warrant at NSCC in Bridgewater.
Bridgewater Police say it was Wednesday morning when an officer was flagged down on High Street by a driver who believed they saw the man on the school’s campus.
Police notified staff, who followed safety protocols, but it was confirmed Latif Tag El Din was not at the location.
It was Monday afternoon when Bridgewater Police issued a statement that they were looking for Din. They had labelled him a “dangerous man”, which had many in town wondering why an emergency alert was not issued.
Mayor David Mitchell says even with the situation did not warrant an alert and he thanked police for how they handled the situation.
Din remains at large.
