Anthony Riser, accused of fatally shooting his neighbor, slipped out of a police transport van while handcuffed, sparking a four-hour manhunt.

NYPD officials said a man escaped their custody early Tuesday morning and was on the loose in the Bronx for more than three hours before he was caught. Police said the man was one of three detainees being transported from the 48th Precinct station house in Tremont to central booking in Brooklyn,
