Murder suspect captured after escaping from Hillsboro courthouse, deputies say

A man accused of second-degree murder bolted from a Washington County courtroom during a break in his trial Monday, spurring a frantic two-hour search of downtown Hillsboro before he was captured, deputies say.

Washington County sheriff’s deputies said they caught up with Edi Villalobos Jr., 28, and arrested him without incident inside a nearby unoccupied apartment about 1:45 p.m.
