An alleged sex offender was finally captured by police in northeast China's Liaoning Province after absconding for 19 years.

According to the police in Shenyang, the provincial capital, the suspect caught their attention on a coach when they were checking IDs of passengers onboard on Nov. 21.

The man did not have an ID with him and was hesitant and avoided eye contact when answering questions. His unusual behavior led to an investigation. Through the investigation, police found that the 46-year-old man surnamed Ma has been a wanted criminal since 1999 for raping and killing a woman in the neighboring Heilongjiang Province.

The suspect confessed to the offense and was handed over to Heilongjiang police. Further investigation is underway.
