Boston marathon bombs 'not part of larger plot': Napolitano – live updates

Source: guardian.co.uk

10m ago
An FBI briefing on the Boston attack is now scheduled for 5pm ET.


12m ago
Question from a reporter (with an unidentified accent, offscreen): The White House calls the Boston attack "an act of terror." "Do you consider the US bombing of civilians in Afghanistan that killed women and children a form of terrorism? Why or why not?"

Carney says he doesn't know about "that incident."

The bottom says Carney.

Is this a press conference from the FBI? Janet Napolitano is HS, not FBI.
Carney is a press secretary.

Seems three different things.

leaves me kinda confused.

in using the Guardian feed in that way is that the headline will keep changing.

They are unassociated events. Its the problem of using a time title on a running live feed.

CNN: suspect identified

CNN's John King has quoted on the air an unnamed "Boston law enforcement source" as saying there's been a what he described as a significant, game-changer breakthrough in the investigation of the Boston attack.

King quoted a "second source who has been briefed on the investigation" as saying that authorities using security camera footage from the Lord & Taylor department store near the attack site have identified a suspect who placed at least one of the bombs and walked away.

The details were scant, and the next FBI on-the-record briefing is due in Boston at 5pm.

King said Boston mayor Tom Menino "did confirm to me when I pressed him" that there had been a breakthrough and that the Lord & Taylor cameras played a part.

They may not even have a suspect in custody and if they do, they have not had a chance to question the suspect, presuming he doesn't lawyer up immediately. So explain to me how she can be so certain without a suspect in custody and the investigation being all of 2 days old?
