Henry Wilson, 46, an Arkansas pastor who has been on the run for more than a year after being convicted of raping two young sisters was captured Wednesday in Minnesota.  According to the Associated Press, he was on trial in March 1999 for raping the two sisters, ages 7 and 9, while he was a minister in a church near Little Rock.  He fled during a lunch break and was later convicted in absentia and sentenced to 40 years in prison.

He now faces additional charges for fleeing to avoid prosecution.
