The search for escaped convicted murderer Danelo Cavalcante in southeastern Pennsylvania moved into its seventh day on Wednesday after he escaped from the Chester County Prison last week.

Cavalcante, 34, is a Brazilian national who was convicted last month of first-degree murder in the death of his former girlfriend Deborah Brandao, and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole last week. He is also wanted in Brazil for different murder charges.

Kennett Consolidated School District closed schools on Tuesday and extended the closure into Wednesday, and Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, was also closed on Wednesday due to the manhunt.

Pennsylvania State Police released images on Tuesday of Cavalcante on a trail camera in Longwood Gardens on Monday night. Officials at Longwood Gardens said the footage was discovered at 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

"Late Monday night, images of the escaped convict were captured on trail cameras on Longwood property. The images were shared with PA State Police immediately after the footage was viewed at around 3:30 am on Tuesday, September 5. PA State Police are actively searching on the property. We will continue to work with authorities and law enforcement as the search continues," Longwood Gardens said in a statement.

The sighting of Cavalcante at the botanical gardens caused officials to expand the 2-mile search area for the escaped inmate on Tuesday.
