Sources also say Danelo Cavalcante told law enforcement he was almost stepped on by police at one point during the search.
Inside, law enforcement interrogated Cavalvante as they tried to nail down his movements.
Residents on the scene said there's a collective feeling of relief around here that Cavalcante is now behind bars. Cavalcante was arraigned at the Avondale barracks on an escape charge, according to the office of Judge Matthew Seavey. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Sept. 27. He was led out with his hands and bare feet shackled, wearing what appeared to be a hospital gown.
Pennsylvania authorities even broadcast a recording of Cavalcante's mother speaking in Portuguese imploring him to surrender peacefully.
