TWIT is happy to report that fugitive Charles Thompson has been captured and is again behind bars. Thompson was nabbed last night after Shreveport police received a tip. They found him drunk and talking on a pay phone outside of a Shreveport bar. The police said he was too drunk to be interrogated, but he did tell them who he was. The authorities also said that Thompson had a bicycle with him when he was arrested, but they don't believe he peddled the 200+ miles from Houston to Shreveport.
I would have thought that Thompson would go down fighting when he was caught - he's on death row, so what does he have to lose? I would expect him to have been shot and killed by dozens of federal agents and U.S. Marshalls, or something; you know, like in a scene from "Walker, Texas Ranger." But instead his capture was like a bad scene from "Pee Wee's Big Adventure."
