Police in Colombia said Friday they have recaptured one of late drug lord Pablo Escobars top hitmen, Jhon Jairo Velasquez -- alias "Popeye" -- who was wanted for extortion.
Popeye, 56, who was released from prison in 2014 after 23 years, was already under investigation for allegedly making threats on his Twitter account against Gustavo Petro, leftist candidate in Sunday's election.
