“Fright at night”: Family of prison escapee’s murder victim fear for lives amid Pa. search

The manhunt has brought hundreds of law enforcement officers using drones, helicopters, horses and dogs to southeastern Pennsylvania

Newsroom September 8 02:32

The family of the woman slain by escaped murderer Danelo Cavalcante was holed up and “terrified” as a massive search to bring him back behind bars pressed on Thursday, a week after he fled a Pennsylvania prison by “crab-walking” up a wall, officials said.

The manhunt has brought hundreds of law enforcement officers using drones, helicopters, horses and dogs to southeastern Pennsylvania, disrupting the lives of thousands of residents, many of whom are on edge about the fugitive’s whereabouts.

Authorities released video of Cavalcante’s brazen escape and announced a shift east in its perimeter after a resident saw Cavalcante, 34, in a creek bed behind their house in Pennsbury Township, a residential area several miles east of Longwood Gardens, where Cavalcante was seen on camera Monday night.
