It's now been one week since 34-year-old Danelo Cavalcante broke out of Chester County Prison, setting off a massive manhunt.
State police say there was a sighting of Cavalcante by a resident in the area of Chandler Road in Pennsbury Township on Tuesday night.A reverse 911 call went out to inform residents of the issue.
Pennsylvania state police addressed the issue after Cavalcante slipped the perimeter established by authorities after his escape from the county's prison last Thursday morning. One image released by police shows Cavalcante walking north at 8:21 p.m. and another photo shows him walking south through the same area at 9:33 p.m.
Devices usually used in searches like this are being hindered by the weather. It's too hot for technology that can spot body temperature to pick anything up.Police say the convicted murderer is growing more desperate to get away and that they want to minimize the opportunity for him to encounter anyone else or obtain any additional items.Cavalcante is five feet tall and weighs 120 pounds with long, shaggy black curly hair and brown eyes.
