The game followed a familiar script.

The suspect slipped through the cracks for 16 years, but eventually got caught right before the game.

He was tracked down after checking into a guesthouse, a move that’s often a red flag for authorities.

The authorities were quick to act, escorting him to prison before he could attend the game.

This one felt like a classic case of “finally caught” for fans of law enforcement.

The result wasn’t surprising by the end.
