Yates was a focus in season 17 premiere of the NBC procedural, and will now be returning in the crosoover episode which is set to air in February, according to the report. In fact he will be the center of attention again, as the investigation teams will be trying to nab Yates, who has escaped from prison.

Chicago P.D.'s Executive Producer Matt Olmstead revealed this bit of exciting information to THR.

"He comes back to Chicago, and it all goes down in Chicago," Olmstead said. "Of course, there's a personal connection more so than ever, in terms of Lindsay wanting to get this guy. It's such an intense episode."

But for fans who liked to see Yates pop up off and on in a case, Olmstead has some disappointing news, this might be the last time.

"I don't like his odds, in terms of escaping one more time the clutches of P.D. - and Lindsay in particular," he said.

The midseason premiere, titled 'Catfishing Teacher,' for Law & Order: SVU will air on January 6.
