Shenandoah Police Department

(Shenandoah) -- A suspect who escaped from North Dakota authorities was apprehended in Shenandoah Thursday.

Shenandoah Police say 40-year-old William Franklin Snyder was arrested for escaping from the North Dakota Department of Corrections. On Tuesday, officers launched an investigation into a possible fraud case with purchases through eBay. During the investigation, officers learned that a name given to them by the victim's boyfriend was, in fact, an alias. Authorities later identified the suspect as an escaped felon from North Dakota. Officers then stopped Snyder in a vehicle in the 400 block of West Thomas on Thursday.

Snyder is being held in the Page County Jail, awaiting extradition back to North Dakota.
