Kelly the Dog Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Out of curiousity, what station are you watching it on? Are they showing this stuff outside of Boston? And yes, the live viewing is crazy. The cops just shut them down though. So this is definitely the guy. Now they're saying on local tv (NBC station) that they're not giving away any addresses or streets. They just did about 5 minutes earlier! I looked it up and its a neighborhood just off of an area I drive through daily. I'm switching between CNN and FOX. CNN just said they were going to a short delay so they didnt show it live in case there was something nasty seen on Live TV. They have been in the states for 10 years.

I don't think it has anything to do with something nasty being seen on tv. They don't want to give this kid a shot on tv of what is exactly outside of his house or have him hear something that could tip him off to their plans.

They've pretty much stayed with the scene at the house in Watertown, though not much happening now. My wife had the Today Show ( ) on and I tried HLN but both of those were nothing but "let's go to Joe Blow reporter telling us nothing in particular". Thanks to everyone for posting links above --- amazing I had to come to TBD to find out what actually happened last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thing they mentioned is so nothing would be seen too graphic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure if non-local stations were getting the same stuff we are here. And a bomb squad going into the guys home in Cambridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 CNN had a high school friend of the kid still on the loose on for about ten minutes. Of course, said he was a normal kid, he is shocked it was him, the suspect was a life guard at Harvard now, They never spoke about much about terrorism, except one time the suspect said something about it's not that out of the ordinary depending on when you are from. But that was at least a year or two ago, and he hasn't spoke to him in the last year, although his buddies would share tweets back and forth. Just he was just a normal guy, and that someone must have in effect brainwashed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 A UPS truck just drove by my home. I'd love to know how he got out since the UPS distribution center is in Watertown like 2 blocks down the street from where the police press conference was. It's maybe a half a mile from where all of this is happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 My mom just called me and told me there's a report out of Buffalo that two Russian nationals were pulled over in Niagara Falls and they may have been at MIT earlier this week. Is anyone out there hearing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) FOX (I think) says authorities talked to the father of the boys who is in Russia. The younger one on the loose is supposedly a med student, and he was supposed to come home for the holidays in Russia.

BringBackFergy Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Moderators: What I am about to ask is not a political question. I am asking for facts or if anyone has seen a report on this question: Considering one of these two (or both) suspects killed/shot the MIT officer in his car with a gun, do we know if they were licensed to carry weapons? I would think one of the news outlets must have searched his name to see if either of them were licensed to carry a firearm. I couldn't find any reports on this.

shrader Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 On the news out here maybe 30 minutes ago, they interviewed a mechanic out here who said he has serviced several cars for these kids. He said that on Tuesday (not sure if he meant this past tuesday or not) that one of them wanted one car back before it was fully repaired. If by some chance there is any connection to this Niagara Falls thing, maybe it's possible that was the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RkFast Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Screw the cable news and tv news morons. Who has the best coverage? Opie and Anthony on SiriusXM. They are just simulcasting the Boston police scanner and going over to the TV if anything good pops up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
