Watch: Officials give update on prison escapee Danelo Cavalcante



Escaped prisoner Danelo Cavalcante continues to elude capture as the massive search to find him presses on into Thursday, a week after he fled the Chester County Prison by crab-walking up a wall, the same method used by another inmate who escaped in May.

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

At a Wednesday press conference, authorities released video of Cavalcante’s brazen escape and announced a shift east in its perimeter after a resident saw Cavalcante in a creek bed behind their house in Pennsbury Township, a suburban residential neighborhood several miles east of Longwood Gardens, a botanical garden where Cavalcante was seen on camera Monday night.

  1. I am in another state, but so terrified he may appear here. Praying for him to be caught to protect everyone 🙏

  2. That perimeter is 1000 acres. He's in there.
    We don't know he isn't armed.

  3. Ben Amerika devletinin güçlü olduğunu sanırdım bir suçluyu böyle basit şekilde ellerinden kaçırmaları ve basın toplantısı yapmaları çok düşündürücü

  4. COPS ACT LIKE THEIR SERIOUSLY LOOKING FOR HIM..BUT, ACTUALLY MILKING THE CLOCK..LETTING HIM HANGOUT

  5. Y'all, telling, everything he, need to know

  6. Ainda não pegaram esse cara?

  7. Reward goes up..they'll keep him running 🏃‍♀️ cops 👮‍♂️ 👮‍♀️ 👮‍♂️ 🚓 eat milk the overtime..triple time

  8. He's sleeping on someone's roof..heater vents..He's in a vent..keeping warm

  9. Что за Кипишь? Хорошо бы выучить язык и понимать что они говорят

  10. He's hiding practically in back woods areas and we're currently in an excessive heat warning. I've driven on the last street he was spotted on. This prison is near my high school. I graduated a few years ago but I still know most of the faculty. School has been delayed now for 3 days and there are police practically everywhere.

  11. How did the dogs not sniff him out?

  12. I am shocked that body armour can be pierced in this day and age 😮

  13. Someone will be enabling him he will have a passport and he would have gone by now I would have thought this man has gone gone gone the paperwork you can get nowadays is unbelievable he escaped for a reason 🫣

  14. I can't believe somebody managed to escape in this day and age😢

  15. Please inform your embassy as soon as possible or any other institute for helping me here in Pakistani punjab

  16. It is my understanding he is 5’ tall and 120 pounds. In his climb out you can see he has muscular arms and shoulders. Just being small it is easier for him to hide. It’s easier to make a better guess of whether it is him or not because he is smaller.

    They will find him.

  17. While the search was ongoing for the Boston Marathon terrorist they had swat teams, a perimeter and many resources local to national. He was found by an alert resident who noticed his boat cover was askew and notified authorities. He was just outside the established perimeter. I believe he is still in prison waiting for execution.

    I wish media questions were more sensitive. We don’t need to know everything. They don’t need to tell us everything. Their plans are better left with some secrets. We don’t know if he has picked up a radio source.

  18. Run dude run. They're mad because he climb that wall and showed how easy it was to get out of that County jail that was holding him. I think that sheriff needs to watch the movie The Fugitive to get some pointers on how to catch him. 😂😂😂

  19. Yaya cari duit di telpon tapi tak per nah dapat 1 sen pon karna taktahu caranya . Aneh tapi nyata.

  20. No puedo dar opinión porque no entiendo el fondo de lo que hablan.
    😢😢😢😢

  21. They use put tracking devices on these guys…chip

  22. Why don't they deploy an army unit? This would give them great practice

  23. Put a Bounty dead or alive That will really get the country looking 😮

  25. Prison Break live in action 😅

  26. Cops love the HOLLYWOOD SPOTLIGHT

  27. COPS LOVE THEIR OVER TIME..LETTING HIM RUN 🏃‍♂️ 🤣

  28. Hes gone bro hes probably in mexico by now

  29. I have very good confidence that they're going to catch this man… even Cool Hand Luke didn't last… glad Loki the Canine is in good shape and Praises to law enforcement / citizen involved this thank yob From washington state.

  30. I feel these cops are trying to save face

  31. He's not in the country legally therefore he will be even more desperate.

  32. No nee update here everything remains the same

  33. He climbed that wall the same way we did when we were young

  34. Did that guy really just ask if the cops get water breaks? 😂

  35. Mmmmmyo hablo Español no ese ingles

  36. Can’t have been that much of a “thorough search” since he’s still on the run. As long as he’s good and doesn’t harm anyone, that’s what I pray for 🙏

  37. So apparently they have no idea where he is! Wow! Hmmm! 🤨
