The fugitive reportedly complied with the investigators’ orders when they stumbled upon him, CNN added.
As he was escorted to a van by a SWAT team, blood was seen dripping down his face, the result of a minor K9 bite wound during his capture, according to Lt. Col. George Bivens.
Footage showed the double murderer wearing a gray Philadelphia Eagles sweatshirt, which was cut off by officers, presumably to search for hidden weapons.
The investigators took pictures of his tattoos once his shirt was off, to confirm his identity, news station KYW-TV reported.
Police shared details of the capture.
