There have been eight sightings that police believe could be Cavalcante.
in southeast Pennsylvania has so far eluded hundreds of law officers — including tactical teams in full combat gear, tracking dogs, cops on horseback and aircraft — as the search entered its second week Thursday and nervous residents stayed alert for any sign of the fugitive.
A civilian saw someone who looked like Cavalcante, who is 5 feet tall, running through an area near Longwood Gardens, one of the country’s top botanical gardens. A surveillance camera on a trail had captured Cavalcante walking through the garden grounds Monday night.“I’ve never felt more scared and more safe at the same time. It’s a really strange feeling,” said Jennie Brown, whose neighborhood is about 1.5 miles from the jail.
Wendy Hughes, who lives about 2 miles from Longwood Gardens, has resumed her morning walks but now carries pepper spray. The slain woman’s family is under police protection, said Ryan. “And they are terrified. They are barricaded inside their home.”
