Danelo Cavalcante, the convicted killer who escaped from a Pennsylvania prison, was seen overnight Saturday, according to state police, who said the fugitive had “changed his appearance” as the manhunt enters its 11th day.

“He is now clean-shaven and wearing a yellow or green hooded sweatshirt, black baseball cap, green prison pants, and white shoes,” Pennsylvania State Police said in a statement early Sunday, adding he was spotted in northern Chester County near Phoenixville, roughly 25 miles northeast of the county prison from which he escaped on August 31.

Cavalcante, 34, is also said to be driving a 2020 white Ford Transit van with Pennsylvania plates and a refrigeration unit on top, according to police. The van had been reported stolen by a local dairy farm, the Chester County District Attorney’s Office said.

    Stuck out to me too but fuck, how do you steal a new pair of pants without attracting attention? At least if you get picked up from stealing a car you’d be like, “well, I gave it my best effort”. But if you get nabbed cause you grabbed a pair of pants from the local Montgomery Ward that’d suck.

      Yeah that is tough.
      First though, I would start by not stabbing a women 38 times to death in front of her two kids. And then go from there.

        Jesus christ. 38 times? Excessive and cruel. Damn, and those kids too - what hope of normalcy could they have now?
