A police official says 19-year-old Colton Harris-Moore was arrested Sunday morning on the northern island of Eleuthera. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to speak publicly about the case.
The official said police expect to fly Harris-Moore within hours from Eleuthera to Nassau, the capital of the island chain off the Florida coast.
Island police have been searching for the wily fugitive since he allegedly crash-landed a stolen plane on nearby Great Abaco Island a week ago.
He has been on the run from American law enforcement since escaping from a Washington state halfway house in 2008.
He picked the wrong country at the wrong time. With the weather down there and the people of the community.
Kid steals plane Not any more.
