A Halifax Regional Police officer collects evidence at a shooting scene on Cutler Avenue in Dartmouth on Dec. 22, 2022. The force is looking to increase its budget and hire three more officers and two civilians. - Ryan TaplinRCMP and Halifax Regional Police are looking for more officers and operational funding to keep up with a growing municipality.
