Two explosions reported at Boston Marathon finish line! **Suspect #2 in Custody!!**

[randomrogue]

The naming of the suspects on the police radio. Was that made up? I haven't heard anything on the news and I've been watching this streaming for a while now.

i hope nobody here was expecting something from ups today, because they are next door to this.

They are advising to stay inside and lock your doors. :|

watertown, waltham, belmont, allston, brighton, newton, cambridge:

"stay indoors"
"shelter in place"

That's depressing. Looks like your typical, nice college kid.

I don't think it's him. They just said on the news that both suspects are foreigners with military training.

 

[randomrogue]

Harvard and MIT is closed for the day. Mass transit is shut down. The remaining suspect might be forced to enter a house and that's going to be nasty.

Nothing would make me happier. I cried watching that video his family and friends made.

Something going down. 3 occupants of a cab in custody. Calling for bomb squad.

Shouldn't this be P&N? Reading the posts it certainly seems like it: "if the guv'ment didn't take our guns this never woulda happend!!!!!1111 derp derp", "they must be muslims!"

Anyways it just sucks that an officer died - Gotta wonder why the suspects were still hanging out in boston. CNN said they were throwing explosives out the window during the police chase? That sounds like some CNN bullshit to me. Sounds like they are really close to suspect #2

They were still 'hanging out' because they live there.

 

[disappoint]

Residents in the area are calling in sightings and suspicious noises!

Now they are calling in all officers with "less lethal" shotguns. They are offering to round them up. ???

I heard a call on the scanner to bring less lethal shotguns up to a mall.

Less lethal shotguns usually shoot bean bags. Intended to take a suspect alive.

Does someone have a link to the live radio police scanner? I thought i saw it on reddit but reddit just crashed.

That's what I was thinking, like they were planning a rush.

Correct idiots.:hmm:

btw, I'm pretty sure you misread the last thing you quoted me on.

Also by the way, this is just completely insane, and normally I would say many of the same things you have, but in this case, those instincts were wrong. Start to finish social media has been all over this case and provided several high quality tips to police. Watching this unfold all night has kept me on the edge of my seat like I haven't been over a news story since we invaded Iraq the first time. The nature and speed of the flow of information is just stunning. I literally can not wait until the entire picture comes into focus.

Social media hasn't provided a single tip. Any pics of these suspects were provided by a TV station, department store and someone who took a photo with their iPhone and realized he took a pic of the suspect after the FBI released the photo.

And now the FBI are saying these two suspects have been in the US for a little over a year, so they have been able to track them that far back. So guess, what it's not the Brown student.

AACK! I want in on the action too! Give me a live update since i can't get it to work please.

kenmore square now??!!

Suspicious device found there.

edit: there does indeed appear to be three suspects involved, at least. I have not seen many confirm the number of people sought

Sorry if this has been answered already, but I don't understand:

-One suspect was ordered to strip down and get into a squad car. The FBI later removed him, naked, for questioning and returned him to the car.

-One suspect was taken to a local hospital and died.

-One suspect is at large.

-There are two suspects.

The naked man did not appear to be injured in the photo I saw. I saw another photo of a clothed man in handcuffs on the ground, who presumably was alive but could have been injured.

How are there not three people here? The naked man died? He was standing and talking

 

[Capt Caveman]

Bombers are Russian. IDIOTS

 

[randomrogue]

They're Russian. From Chechnya.

 

[SphinxnihpS]

OK they are calling for no fluorescent orange, black only for house to house sweep. Looks like they're not sure where he is.

Two in handcuffs, could be completely unrelated.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Leave the fucking Brown student and family alone. ASSHOLES
