A law enforcement dog caught a fugitive as he tried to crawl away in thick underbrush two weeks after his escape from a prison in the US state of Pennsylvania, authorities have said. Danelo Cavalcante, 34, was arrested in a wooded area after an aircraft picked up his heat signal overnight. More than 500 officers hunted him down after he escaped on 31 August. He was sentenced last month to life for killing his ex-girlfriend in front of her two young children in April 2021
