Officials searched through a wooded area near Longwood Gardens for hours on Thursday after another possible sighting of Danelo Cavalcante, the convicted killer who was caught on video escaping from a suburban Philadelphia jail yard last week.
Cavalcante, a 34-year-old from Brazil, escaped from the Chester County prison on Aug. 31 by scaling a wall, climbing over razor wire and jumping from a roof. The breakout wasn’t detected by guards for a full hour, authorities say.
Holland said Cavalcante"crab-walked" up the wall at 8:51 a.m. that day. He then moved through razor wire and across a roof before vaulting a fence and pushing through more razor wire on his way to freedom. "While we believed the security measures we had in place were sufficient, we were proved otherwise," said Holland.
Considered extremely dangerous, Cavalcante has since been spotted at least eight times, with the latest sighting on Thursday. Authorities continue to move and expand their search perimeter — now a vast area filled with forests and thick brush — while residents remain on edge. “That was kind of the terrifying moment, where I like, looked at quickly and said, ‘He is in the house, call 911 right now,’” Drummond said Wednesday.
Investigators said Thursday they can't confirm whether or not Cavalcante has broken into any homes, set up camp or left any belongings. Police are asking residents to pay attention to their homes and garages and to report any missing items.
