A new development in the search for a missing fugitive who's been on the run for nearly two weeks.

A man by the name of DeShawnte Waller was taken into custody in North Carolina.

We're told he's being held for U.S. Marshals.

Investigators in Syracuse have been looking for a man by the same name since October 2.

They tried to pull over DeShawnte Waller, but he took off down East Genesee Street. It turns out he was wanted on a parole violation.

The chase ended when he crashed into another vehicle. Waller ran off on foot, and a manhunt began.

Authorities say Waller has a long list of convictions, including rape, assault and robbery.
