The 34-year-old Brazilian’s face was still battered and bloodied after being routed out from a woodpile this morning by a heroic K-9.
Murderer Danelo Cavalcante was led out of a Pennsylvania State Police station Wednesday with blood drips visible across his hospital gown — while new images emerged showing the heroic K-9 that finally captured him hours before.after crab-walking up walls and out of Chester County Prison on Aug. 31, was escorted out of the Pottstown station in the hands of heavily armed cops, who loaded him into an armored car and took him away.
He tried to crawl away from police, Lt. Colonel George Bivens of the Pennsylvania State Police said in a press conference, but was stopped after the police dog bit him. The killer was wearing an Philadelphia Eagles hoodie when he was captured, and his forehead was streaked with blood where the K9 bit his scalp.“Cavalcante did not realize he was surrounded until he was,” Bivens said of the covert capture, which began around 1 a.m. Wednesday when a DEA aircraft detected a heat signal in the underbrush, reportedly behind a tractor supply store in South Coventry Township.
He was finally found west of PA 100 and north of Prizer Road, near where a burglar alarm was tripped Tuesday night.Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro jokingly pledged to replace the hoodie at the press conference, as Cavalcante presumably stole it from somebody during his 14 days at large.
