POTTSTOWN, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania police say escaped murderer Danelo Souza Cavalcante has been captured after nearly two weeks on the run. State police announced Cavalcante’s capture on social media Wednesday and planned a news conference announcing details. Heavily armed police had descended on the South Coventry Township area, closing roads and telling residents to lock their doors. The 34-year-old Cavalcante had broken out of the Chester County jail Aug. 31 while awaiting transfer to a state prison to serve a life sentence for fatally stabbing an ex-girlfriend in 2021. The capture was announced as the manhunt in rural southeastern Pennsylvania entered its 14th day.
