[elleng]

3. Interesting. But where are they getting their info from I wonder.

No mention of any connection between Watertown incident and Boston bombing at least on CNN or MSBNC.

[steve2470]

4. or on WHDH live feed nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. If true, they got sources

That the other two lack, and CNN has really gotten burned. So they might be skittish

[TeamPooka]

5. let's hope so

[applegrove]

6. Oh I hope they got the ****er.

[alcibiades_mystery]

7. Formal announcement soon, per security reporter

Probably got white hat, who is more obvious.

Wowwie, that was FAST.

Would not confirm: CNN gun shy here, I'll bet.

[octoberlib]

20. Re CNN: I would hope so. nt

[octoberlib]

28. White hat is still on the loose !

On The Media ?@onthemedia 1m
Police scanner - "suspect that is still outstanding is the suspect with the white hat that was identified in the photos.

[alcibiades_mystery]

29. Jiminy! This guy is a piece of work!

[moondust]

8. CNN is live in Watertown

and does NOT have confirmation of any connection to the marathon.

[SoCalDem]

13. After CNN's ferfuffle, they may the the LAST to get official notice

[Electric Monk]

17. Or CNN may be being extra cautious for awhile?

Let's hope the Globe is right.

[moondust]

19. They're being vewy vewy careful this time.

[SoCalDem]

27. Shhhhh,,Wolfie is sweeping...don't wake him up

[Shivering Jemmy]

9. I hope these evil bastards are both taken alive

No easy way out for them.

[Separation]

10. I saw that as well.

Ill wait until they get something better than "an unamed source". All of these news sites just want to be first to report the breaking news, they don't care whether its true, false, or just a Howard Stern caller.

I hope it's true though.

[octoberlib]

11. Let's hope they're more credible than CNN. NT

[elleng]

12. Local nbc just did not make the connection,

but sounded like they think they may be able to do so.

edit: What they 'know' was not related to Marathon, but that mit etc. stuff resulted in death of first perp, who was taken to hospital earlier. Still searching for another, in Watertown.

fbi just released new images of Marathon perps.

[Cha]

15. Wow, thanks octoberlib.

[Recursion]

16. The Globe is the only media outlet that hasn't covered itself in shame this week

So I feel more confident hearing it from them.

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

18. MSNBC not touching this so far

[patrice]

22. 20 block perimeter has been established & they're searching for the other alleged bomber. nt

[AgingAmerican]

24. Neighbors say automatic weapons were being fired

This is domestic.

25. CNN: Violence haunts Boston area in wake of Marathon terror

http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/19/us/boston-area-violence/index.html

Violent incidents early Friday, including the shooting death of a college police officer, kept Bostonians on edge just days after the bombing of the iconic Boston Marathon.

Howling sirens pierced the night quiet, and flashing lights lit up the darkness, as dozens of officers from state and city police responded to the deadly shooting on the campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge. Hardly an hour later, they were chasing suspects in a hijacked vehicle just less than five miles away.

There were reports that explosives may have been involved before police cornered the vehicle.

"Police were in a standoff with the vehicle just down the hill," said CNN photographer Gabe Ramirez saw the chase end in Watertown. They ordered the suspect out of vehicle and commanded he strip down naked before putting him in a patrol car and transporting him away from the scene, Ramirez said.

Police ran down the streets ....

[Warpy]

26. The Globe used to be a great paper

but these days I'm going to give this sort of thing at least a 24 hour sniff test.

I hope these are the guys. I hope nobody else gets hurt as they're taken into custody. I hope this is over, at least until the trial.

Eleven more days of April. I hope we all make it.

31. NY Times:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/20/us/explosives-detonated-in-massachusetts-standoff.html?partner=rss&emc=rss&smid=tw-nytimes

A police SUV “drove toward the shooters,” he said, and was shot at until it was severely damaged. It rolled out of control, Mr. Kitzenberg said, and crashed into two cars in his driveway.

The two shooters, he said, had a large and unwieldy bomb. “They lit it, still in the middle of the gunfire, and threw it. But it went 20 yards at most.” It exploded, he said, and one of the two men ran towards the gathered police officers. He was tackled, but it was not clear if he was shot, Mr. Kitzenberg said.

The explosions, said Loretta Kehayias, 65, another resident, “lit up the whole house. I screamed. I’ve never seen anything like this, never, never, never.”

Meanwhile, the other you man, said Mr. Kitzenberg, got back into the SUV, turned it toward officers and “put the pedal to the metal.” The car “went right through the cops, broke right through and continued west.” ...../
