Nafiysh Knox-Schenck was taken into custody on the 600 block of West Girard Avenue around noon on Wednesday, May 15, authorities said.
Knox-Schenck was arrested on a warrant for firearms charges on Monday and a gun was recovered during his arrest, city police have said.
After he was placed in a police car on West Collum Street, an "unknown person" opened the door and he escaped, PPD said.
Marshals tracked him to a Northern Liberties apartment complex Thursday morning and he surrendered without incident, according to USMS.
“Our fugitive task force has the most experience in the country apprehending escapees and the Marshals Service will always support law enforcement agencies who need violent criminals brought back into custody” said Supervisory Deputy U.S. Marshal Robert Clark.
