He was captured on his way home from the Crusade. (3/8)

After Richard failed to capture the main objective of his crusade, Jerusalem, he made travel arrangements to return to England in disguise. Unfortunately, this didn’t work out as planned for him, and in Austria he was recognised and captured by Duke Leopold V. Leopold, seeing an opportunity to earn favour and riches, handed Richard over to the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI, who ransomed Richard back to England for a hefty price.
