A convicted murderer’s escape from a Pennsylvania prison Aug. 31 triggered a massive manhunt that finally came to an end Wednesday after the man eluded capture for nearly two weeks.

But for days, helicopters, drones and dogs searching an ever-shifting perimeter could not get the fugitive back behind bars.
