Escaped Pennsylvania killer Danelo Cavalcante captured using heat technology, Border Patrol dog Cavalcante, 34, had been on the run since Aug. 31 when he escaped from Chester County Prison in Pocopson Township.

He was transported in a convoy to the Avondale State Police barracks where he arrived wrapped in a foil blanket shortly before 9 a.m., Pennsylvania State Police Lt. Col. George Bivens said at a news briefing.

Cavalcante did not have any significant injuries, except for a minor dog bite, he said.
