Riot suspect nabbed at border crossing

One of the three accused Stanley Cup rioters on the run from police and believed to be in the U-S has been apprehended.

Border officials say 21-year-old Dakota Schlag tried to get into Canada at the Peace Arch crossing this week.

As they questioned the Idaho man, border guards realized he was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant related to the riot.

He was arrested and turned over to the RCMP. 

Police say the same will happen to the other two accused on the loose if they try to enter Canada.

They are Jensen White of Seattle and Nigel Li of Vancouver, believed to be studying in the U-S.
