Today, Nova Scotia RCMP charged the biochemical weapons specialist with possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose related to the chemical osmium tetroxide, according to a police news release. He was also charged with uttering threats to police to cause bodily harm or death.

The offences are alleged to have happened between Dec. 26 and Jan. 21.

The 42-year-old Cole Harbour man was transported to Nova Scotia from Ottawa on an RCMP plane.

The Christopher Phillips arrest in Ottawa led police to search this Nova Scotia cottage.
At a Thursday afternoon press conference, RCMP Cpl. Greg Church said the case is very serious.
