Get some sleep, there will be plenty of time to digest this tomorrow.

It's important to note that Tripathi is not Muslim, he's Hindu.

You don't NEED to leave the computer

[Broad Street]

Police Chief: We have officers in plain clothes, watch who you approach. Stay with a uniformed officer.

[Broad Street]

Sounds like they're headed to the mall.

[Broad Street]

State police requesting houses on Dexter evacuate their houses due to devices. Good Lord.

[Broad Street]

They're about to give some info to the media.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Sounds like they want the media to group up at the mall.

Wow... these are gonna be some tired Cops; hope they called for mutual aid.  I've been on some of these extended call-outs and they're usually agonizingly slow.  This one seems to be more along the lines of our own "North Hollywood shootout"... rapid and fluid

Yeah, FBI is there, along with officers from the surrounding towns, and the National Guard.

WCVB's Kathy Curran: Men involved in MIT + Watertown shootings are the Marathon Bombers. Suspect #1 dead, Suspect #2 (white hat) on the run.

 

[Broad Street]

Sounds like they have the area surrounded and are going to wait for daylight.

National Guard are good at covering-fire, not searching...  

[Broad Street]

Wonder if the President is going to make a statement any time soon?

[Broad Street]

National Guard are good at covering-fire, not searching...  

 

False. House to house searches are part of their training, especially for deployments. But they're good at covering fire too.

[Broad Street]

Tactical gear being moved to clear out devices.

[Broad Street]

Reports now saying first suspect is not dead, but is accounted for.
