After several days of highly public investigation, police arrested the man wanted in connection with the Jan. 30 shooting at Scott Road SkyTrain Station at a home in Burnaby early Sunday morning.
Officers arrested Daon Glasgow at roughly 5:30 a.m. inside a house in the 7500 block of Boundary Road, near the intersection with Rumble Avenue. Three other individuals were detained at the scene, but were later released.
Glasgow was arrested on a warrant for being unlawfully at large. He was wanted in connection with the Scott Road shooting, which sent Metro Vancouver Transit Police Const. Josh Harms to hospital with serious injuries. Harms was later released and is expected to recover.
Surrey RCMP’s Serious Crime Section led the investigation and the arrest at the residence, which police described as “high risk.”
Other units in the building were evacuated before the arrest, and neither Glasgow nor anyone else was injured during the process, police said.
Multiple windows at the home appeared to be broken, and part of a wooden fence around the property was also smashed.
Police told reporters after the arrest that they had received judicial authorization to enter the home, and that investigators were continuing to work at the property in preparation for a court appearance on Monday.
In addition to Surrey RCMP, the Lower Mainland Emergency Response Team, the Integrated Police Dog Service, Air 1 helicopter, and Burnaby RCMP all participated in the arrest on Sunday.
At a press conference, Transit Police Chief Barry Kross thanked Surrey RCMP for their “tireless efforts” in conducting the investigation.
“It certainly takes a team effort for an investigation of this magnitude to come to a successful conclusion as it has today,” Kross said.
Investigators are still working with BC Prosecution Service on the case, police said, and further information about the shooting from the public is still welcome. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477.
