STORYLINE:
French authorities said Saturday that a fugitive convict who prompted an international hunt after a deadly prison escape has been arrested.
The French interior minister said Mohamed Amra was arrested in Romania.
He didn’t provide details.
Two guards were killed when Amra escaped from a prison convoy in Normandy last May.
Amra fled after being sentenced for burglary.
He was also under investigation for an attempted organized homicide and a kidnapping that resulted in death.
The Paris prosecutor said Amra had connections with Marseille’s organized crime syndicates and was suspected of heading a drug trafficking network.
