Police said Daon Glasgow was taken into custody Sunday after a Canada-wide warrant was issued.

No charges have been laid.

Transit police say Harms visited the department’s headquarters on Friday to meet with his co-workers.

“I have so many reasons to be grateful, and so many people to thank,” he said in the statement released Monday.

“I thank God my injuries were not worse. Though I have a long road ahead, I am going to make a full recovery and rejoin my colleagues as soon as possible.”
