Less than five hours after the Calgary Police Service issued a plea for help finding a man wanted on a manslaughter warrant, the police department said the suspect was arrested in Edmonton.
In a news release issued Wednesday afternoon, police said 32-year-old Jason Tait is in custody but did not provide further details about where he was found.

The manslaughter warrant was issued in relation to the May 2022 death of 22-year-old Keanan Crane. Crane was found dead near Morley, Alta., about 60 kilometres west of Calgary.
Police said they believe Tait was involved in Crane’s homicide.
Before he was found dead, Crane was not seen for over a month, and his family had filed a missing persons report.
