Halifax police say a complaint about public urination led to the discovery of an apparent fraud operation.
Police received a call about a man urinating on a tree at a city intersection at around 3:45 a.m. Saturday.
The man got into a car, which responding officers followed to a convenience store where two men in the vehicle were arrested for breaching court orders and a third for obstructing a police officer.
The ensuing investigation led officers to a home that police say the men had rented two weeks earlier.
Inside, investigators allegedly found materials used to produce fake credit cards and other items that police allege were obtained fraudulently.
Three Quebec men are facing several charges, including fraud over $5,000, possession of stolen credit cards and possession of property obtained by crime.
