A murder suspect who escaped from custody Tuesday night prompted a manhunt and standoff.
The Dallas Sheriff's Office said 30-year-old Franklin Davis grabbed a deputy's duty weapon and fled during a visit to Parkland Hospital.
Deputies found him a short time later barricaded alone inside a van near the intersection of Harry Hines Boulevard and Reagan Street. A standoff ensued.
Davis surrendered and was taken into custody after 10:30 p.m. He was taken back to the hospital because he was complaining of chest pains.
No one was hurt during Tuesday night's incident.
