A fugitive who had been on the run for years has been captured in Brooklyn. Elvio Mancebo, a convicted murderer, was taken into custody, ending a manhunt that started when he failed to appear for sentencing.

Mancebo was originally charged with capital murder in Harris County in 2017. He later skipped sentencing and disappeared, prompting a search effort across multiple jurisdictions.

The arrest was made possible by teamwork among law enforcement agencies, according to officials. With Mancebo's capture, he is no longer considered a threat to the public. For more information on the case, details are available from news outlets.
