Boston Marathon Explosions

Per CNN, they have the suspect cornered in a building. They can see him, and they are firing gas in to try to get him to come out, or pass out.
 
Mother of Pearl, I'll drive down there ( 6 miles away) and poke the body !

Nothing yet. Police still converging.

Did not get that report on local channel 5, but not saying that it isn't happening.

Stay tuned.

The report I saw is that they have a suspect down in a boat, in a residential neighborhood driveway, or something like that.
 
Beagle, can't you just drive down there with your laptop and live stream for us? :D

That's what I have here. The body language of the police seems less rigid right now.

Could be a boat - they said an "enclosed area" and I wrote "building."

Well, it was CNN after all. If the news isn't the way THEY want it, they'll just make it up as they go along... :ignore:
 
Feds have told CNN that the police have engaged a possible suspect and have been told to wait for bomb squad and SWAT team.
 
CNN: The FBI has announced that they interviewed the older Bro. in 2011.

Channel 5 New Flash: Got him ! Not sure what that means. No ambulance sirens. That was just flashed and not confirmed. We've heard this before, though. The PD looks more relaxed.
 
Just heard this, surronded, still alive.

Got him surrounded. In a boat, still alive. Not sure what shape.

CNN: suspect is cornered, but may have some sort of "device."

Probably a job...

Did you mean that to be a joke?

Just wondering, because , according to CBS, the FBI interviewed him at the request of a "foreign country", because of concern over "extremist ties".

Not that we want to jump to any conclusions about these guys....

That's correct and is what I'm seeing here on the local channels.
Not sure what is next. Police and Feds seem to have stood down some.

Good reporting there, Ace !
 
Thanks, Dr. Watson - same back at you!

Per CNN - they have called in a Bearcat Assault Vehicle which can drive right up to the "structure" where he is holed up, with less danger to law enforcement.

Sounds like they really expect that he has a suicide vest on.

Homeland Security - they want him alive so they can get info. from him.

The boat is not a little row boat, it looks like a family fishing boat and is shrink wrapped. That would explain why the wait.

Feds are confirming the person in the boat is suspect #2. Found him via infra red imaging. They are just waiting it out now.

ETA: Now hearing that they found him via a tip.

As long as they found him...............
