Escaped fugitive Danelo Cavalcante caught after two-week manhunt

Convicted killer and escaped fugitive Danelo Cavalcante was captured Wednesday morning when a K9 officer sniffed him out in the Pennsylvania woods — following two weeks of him eluding search teams by breaking into suburban homes for food and hiding out in the wilderness.

Cavalcante — who escaped from Chester County Prison on Aug. 31 — was apprehended without incident shortly after 8 a.m. when the K9 revealed him lying flat under a pile of leaves and wood, Lt. Col. George Bivens of the Pennsylvania State Police said at a press conference.
