It might have been a fake, but a West Nipissing man is looking at weapons-related charges following an incident in the municipality.
Just before 12:30pm Wednesday, Nipissing West OPP got several calls about a man with a firearm.
When police arrived on the scene, the weapon turned out to be a replica handgun.
Despite this, the 22-year-old is now charged with possession of an imitation weapon for a dangerous purpose, carrying a concealed weapon and possession of a firearm.
