Harris said his final few seasons in Toronto helped prepare him to be a coach.
Regina Police Service (RPS) said on Monday that its officers had discovered the same pellet gun was used twice in two separate crimes at the same downtown Regina business last week.
A 25-year-old woman and a 22-year-old man are facing multiple charges following the two incidents.

RPS said in the first incident on Jan. 16 officers were called to the business in the 2100 block of 11th Avenue shortly before 10 p.m. after an employee saw two people in the building after closing time. Police said one was carrying what was believed to a firearm.
Members of the RPS Tactical Support Unit, patrol officers and members of the canine unit were called, and a man was arrested. The man was bitten by a police dog and treated for minor injuries, police said. He has been charged with two counts of breaking and entering with intent.
Then, on Jan. 17 at about 5:50 p.m., police said they were called to the same address again after receiving a report that a woman had pointed what appeared to be a firearm at a security guard after being escorted outside.
RPS said officers found the woman walking in the 1700 block of Rose Street shortly after and she was arrested. Police said she was also involved in the incident the day before at the same address and after further investigation found a pellet gun they said was used in both incidents.
The woman was charged with two counts of breaking and entering with intent, assault with a weapon, failing to comply with a release order and possession of a firearm contrary to a prohibition order.
The man appeared in Regina Provincial Court on Friday, while the woman appeared on Monday.
