Danelo Cavalcante’s run of freedom is finally over.
Cavalcante, the convict who broke out of a Pennsylvania prison, was captured Wednesday after an exhaustive manhunt of nearly two weeks. Authorities tracked him down using thermal heat technology from an aircraft before a U.S. Border Patrol tactical unit dog ultimately pinned him down, authorities said.
When pictures of him finally being caught surfaced, NFL fans couldn’t help but to notice that he was rocking the shirt of the Philadelphia Eagles.
He is not exactly the type of person the organization wants wearing their gear.

Cavalcante is a Brazilian man who fluently speaks Portuguese and Spanish and some English and stands around 5 feet tall and weighs around 120 pounds, officials said.
His arrest comes after he had reportedly obtained a firearm. Cavalcante is at a state police facility and he will be taken to a state prison where he will serve a life sentence.
Earlier this month, the prison’s warden Howard Holland shared the video of his escape where he could be seen approaching a small hallway at an outdoor exercise yard with another person. Cavalcante then stretches to span the length of the hallway before working his way sideways up the wall and onto the roof.
The Chester County Prison county guard was fired after 18 years as a corrections officer as a result of that escape.
