A man is facing charges after two hit and runs in Halifax and Dartmouth over the weekend.

Police say it was around 1:40 p.m., Sunday, when they got a call about a car driving erratically.

It was reported to have been involved in a couple of hit and runs, with someone assaulted by the driver in one of the collisions.

The driver was arrested just after 2 p.m. on Joseph Howe Drive.

The 24-year-old suspect is scheduled for court at a later date to face charges of assault, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and two counts of failure to stop after an accident.
