BARRIE, ONTARIO, Canada — Ontario Provincial Police have ended a Canada-wide warrant for a federal offender wanted for breaching his parole.

Police say 36-year-old Ryan Hamelin was apprehended in Barrie, Ont., on Tuesday.

They say Hamelin was serving a one-month, 29-day sentence for criminal harassment and had been at large since March 18.

Provincial police issued a Canada-wide warrant for Hamelin on Monday, saying that he could attempt to flee to Alberta.
