They caught him.

A nationwide manhunt for Philadelphia’s cop-killing John Lewis has ended in Miami. After shooting hoops with Dwayne Wade in the American Airlines Arena and making a new music video with Will Smith, Lewis ducked into the Miami Rescue Mission for some soup and stale donuts. Police found him at the homeless shelter’s chapel praying to God that no one would find him.

Lewis was then dragged out of the shelter, screaming, “There is no God!”

It’s good for the country, the city, and especially the family of slain police officer Chuck Cassidy that they caught this guy. But things didn’t have to turn out this well — a smarter criminal might still be on the loose. I know that if I were John Lewis, and I didn’t want anyone to find me, I wouldn’t have stepped foot outside Philly.
