This is a really cool reenactment of Paul Revere's ride on TV right now

[Wrong Element]

All those police vehicles riding to the opposite shore of the Charles!


WTF is all this? A policeman shot at MIT, a carjacking? Bomb squad vehicles roaming the streets? Does this have some connection with the marathon bombing, or does no one know?


They need to wrap this up in a hurry. After watching Texas explosion coverage a night ago, I need some goddamn rest.

Someone is in custody. Of course, it's CNN saying that, so I might have to edit this post in a few minutes.

 

[Wrong Element]

A solid real time account of what's been going down; specifically mentions having seen a pressure cooker bomb:

Could things get any more insane at this moment?

Good lord.

"Suspect #2" is apparently this dude?

There's been all sorts of press on him since he went "missing." Looks like we've solved two mysteries tonight!

And now they become even more bizarre.

The morning and afternoon GB derpsquawk and shitstain lifers will have their plate full trying to sift through all the internet news feeds to make their derp threads when they wake up tomorrow.

UNCONFIRMED reports that "Suspect #1" (the guy in the black hat and sunglasses) may have been shot and killed.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

They shot him, after they told him to take off his clothes ? (Just in case, he was wearing a vest consisting of explosives, under his coat.)

Did you catch that video of the gunfire battle in almost total darkness? It lasted for almost a minute. Shit got crazy real.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

80-100 rounds fired....
There is a second recording, of the gunfight
I would like to know what the two explosions, were.

 

[Wrong Element]

I can't get over the fact that one of the two most wanted men in America since Monday was already the target of a major regional search effort, for reasons totally unrelated to crime.

CNN is showing the arrest of the naked Suspect #2. Absolutely, let's give the boys in federal prison a sneak peek at their future roomie.

I should have guessed that's why they told him to strip. Makes sense; people in their position have a history of not wanting to be taken alive.

I just heard that it was bad, but I haven't seen the video.

Crazy that I'm watching all this go down on an iPhone. Everything came in blips, first news alerts from my NBC app, then Twitter started blowing up. Went straight to the live news feed right after that. Tech is amazing.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

wow Bomb squad robot looking inside the car, that the suspects left behind (the Mercedes)

 

[IrezumiKiss]

Possible subject still at large, everyone's been told to lock themselves in and not to answer the door unless it's an identifiable police officer. Scary shit.

That was awesome.

Either he isn't dead after all, or there's a third party involved in all this who we still don't know about.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

Transit police officer shot- in serious condition

 

[IrezumiKiss]

Suspect #1 has been killed. Other guy still at large.

 

[Wrong Element]

Suspect #1 has been killed. Other guy still at large.

So who got arrested? He looked like the white-hat suspect to me. Was that not him?

 

[IndieSnob]

County DA confirmed one suspect is dead.

No-one arrested, one dead, one on the run.

According to the Boston police commissioner, the white hat guy is the one still at large.

 

[gotsnowgotslush]

I kept looking, for a confirmation, about the death- I saw the naked suspect put into the police car....
News conference, going on, right now....

 

[IndieSnob]

Just saying suspect #1 shot, #2 in white hat on the loose.

So what of the guy who was made to strip naked?

 

[Sean]

Apparently they were throwing grenades at the cops that were chasing them.
