LONDONDERRY, N.S. - RCMP in Nova Scotia say they have arrested a man who allegedly shot at a car in Central Onslow early Friday.

Police say he was safely arrested Friday afternoon in Londonderry.
Cpl. Chris Marshall says the shooting happened around 12:30 a.m. Friday when someone driving along Highway 2 saw a car driving slowly, so they pulled over to offer assistance.
