Police descended on a vehicle in the neighboring Watertown community later in the evening amid reports of gunfire and explosions, the ABC TV station in Boston reported. One suspect was in police custody, local media reported. Reuters was not immediately able to verify the reports. Police officers with weapons drawn, and people wearing FBI and ATF jackets could be seen in the live video. It was not clear if the police activity in Watertown was related to the shooting at MIT, or if either was connected to the bombing of the Boston marathon, which killed three people and wounded 176.[/quote] Current overview: [QUOTE=Prez;40335990]Breaking news on 7News from Steve Cooper: According to source: - One suspect is dead - CONFIRMED - Second person still on the run - CONFIRMED - One had been shot and taken to BI, now reporting one suspect shot/killed. - Active search underway[/QUOTE] [quote=bondgamer from SA] One of the shootouts happened a couple houses away from me. Was a really intense 15 minutes of almost constant gun fire. Hundreds of shots and at least 5 explosions (which everyone is saying were grenades). Will be interesting to see what it looks like tomorrow. Just got an automated police call that suspect is still at large and we need to remain indoors with doors locked.[/quote] Looks like the police will wait for daylight attm. ------------------------------------------- [B]RESOURCES:[/B] - [url=http://emergency.mit.edu/]MIT emergency status site[/url] - last stated that the shooter was off the campus - [url=http://livewire.wcvb.com/Event/117th_Running_of_Boston_Marathon]WCVB LiveWire[/url] - [url=http://tunein.com/radio/Boston-Police-Fire-and-EMS-Scanner-s146109/]Scanner[/url] - [url=http://audio2.radioreference.com/446184308]Alternate scanner[/url] - [url=http://www.justin.tv/turtleey]Another scanner[/url] (courtesy of TurtleeyFP) Neither scanners not working?

This reminds me of the Bin Laden thread we had last year. FP is a great source for breaking news info.

My vote is for this one.

Something about moving in a bear? Im assuming thats a codename for something

[QUOTE=ATribeCalledQ;40336895]I hope they catch this bastard alive[/QUOTE] Me too. I want answers.

[QUOTE=Mr. Bleak;40336896]This reminds me of the Bin Laden thread we had last year. FP is a great source for breaking news info.[/QUOTE] I don't need TV for the news. Just FP and Reddit.

[QUOTE=archival;40336899]Something about moving in a bear? Im assuming thats a codename for something[/QUOTE] I think it's a type of vehicle.

[QUOTE=archival;40336899]Something about moving in a bear? Im assuming thats a codename for something[/QUOTE] possibly their bomb-disarming robot??? maybe a unit?

quoting my post earlier: [quote]quotin' from the find Sunil facebook page (which is down or something) [quote]"Help Us Find Sunil Tripathi Just relocated our base today from one place to another. Thanks to Brown for hosting us so generously for this first phase of our marathon.

[QUOTE=Craig Willmore;40336904]is it too soon to speculate on motive? they don't seem religiously motivated since Sunil is hindu[/QUOTE] why would that change anything

[QUOTE=archival;40336899]Something about moving in a bear? Im assuming thats a codename for something[/QUOTE] BearCat maybe? SWAT transport vehicle IIRC

somebody call me when something important happens, and not before

CNN has video of one of the suspects being arrested. The Police had him strip down naked, hence the "underwear" references on the scanner radio: [url]http://www.cnn.com/video/?hpt=hp_t1#/video/us/2013/04/19/vo-suspect-perp-walk.cnn[/url]

I'm worried he'll either escape among the chaos, has been escaped for a while, or is going to be killed.

motion sensors are being tripped in a building

motion sensors tripping inside a building

"Reports of motion sensors tripping in the building" 100 Talcot (?)

Still blows my mind that this was apparently the same two guys. Who knows what they were doing at MIT.

Motion sensors tripping in a building.

OP should put what was said on the Facebook page. Shady stuff.

Motion sensor going off

100

100 Talcot - motion sensors tripped

[QUOTE=Craig Willmore;40336904]is it too soon to speculate on motive? they don't seem religiously motivated since Sunil is hindu[/QUOTE] I think it's too soon, I could understand attacking a school but I don't see why they would attack a marathon. The connection doesn't make sense.
