David Sweat: Shot and Captured in Upstate New York Jun 28th 2015, 22:24, by Tyler Johnson Escaped prisoner David Sweat has reportedly been shot and captured by authorities while attempting to flee to Canada. Sweat was on the run for more than three weeks after breaking out of Clinton Correctional Facility in Upstate New York.  Fellow escapee Richard Matt was shot and killed two days ago. Police say they've been closing in on Sweat ever since. The 35-year-old convicted murderer was apprehended near the town of Malone, NY, less than two miles from the Canadian border.  He was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, and his condition is unknown at this time. “It’s been a long haul for everyone, for the community, for law enforcement,” Sheriff David Favro told the New York Times. “I’ll be curious now if he survives to see what he’s going to say, if anything.” Sweat's arrest concludes a nearly month-long manhunt that began when he and Matt were allegedly aided by two prison employees in their escape from Clinton Correctional on June 6.
