The fugitive couple that some had called a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde was captured at an Arizona campground last night after a three-week cross-country manhunt.
John McCluskey and Casslyn Welch were taken into custody near the town of Springerville, Ariz., near the border with New Mexico. The duo told authorities that if given the chance, they would have shot it out with police.
The beginning of the end for the escaped Arizona inmate and his suspected accomplice, who had eluded law enforcement for weeks, came when a forest service ranger saw an unattended campfire and a silver vehicle at a campground in the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest.
