LAUDERHILL, Fla. (AP) - A fugitive featured on "America's Most Wanted" is being held in the Broward County Jail on a charge of attempted felony murder.

Jail records show 27-year-old Amos Isaac remained jailed Saturday without bond. It was not immediately known if he has an attorney.

A sheriff's office press release says Isaac was wanted for nearly beating a 20-year-old woman to death with a shovel on Jan. 10th. He eluded authorities for months until investigators received information that he was in the Lauderhill area. He was arrested after a foot chase.

The TV show featured the attack earlier this year.
