After the incident, Woods left Indiana and made his way to Chicago, trying to avoid getting caught. But his escape didn’t last long. On Wednesday, around 3:30 p.m., authorities received a tip about someone who looked like Woods near the 1200 block of South Canal Street. Acting quickly, members of the Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force teamed up with Chicago police to track him down.

The search led them to a business in the 1400 block of South Canal Street. Inside, they found Woods and took him into custody without further incident.
