Mounties were deployed to the Elk Valley area in case the man, who was believed to be distraught and armed with a weapon, attempted to cross the border into Canada.
U.S. officials apprehended the man just before 4 p.m.
A number of RCMP officers could be seen leaving the area back to their respective detachments through the afternoon.
