listening to the scanner, they have no idea where he is right now...

how did he lose all those police? crazy

 

[Nibel]

Sunil Tripathi is the #1 trending topic globally on twitter right now

Oh crap

What if it's not him

[DarkKyo]

lost pursuit? lel
good luck ever finding the guy

Don't they have dozens of search dogs there? There's only so long he can run within 20 blocks.

 

[Nilaul]

no foot pursuit now. Cops have no idea where he is.

Sewage?

 

[MooseKing]

This is some legit spy shit.

 

[MasLegio]

Holy shit it's Sunil!? His poor family
They searched for him!! They loved him, that monster!!!

Well, he do fit the profile on who the "top men" are grooming into suicide bombers

 

[quaere]

The scanner report that the suspect at large is the white hat guy is SEPARATE from the foot pursuit. The first seems to still be solid information, the second is now being taken back.

I assume this collage has been posted, but here was an image with speculation that Suspect 2 was Sunil earlier tonight:

 

[Divvy]

how the fuck is this kid escaping from an army of cops swats national guards and helicopters

Police are going to be more careful when the suspect might have an arsenal of explosives at his disposal.

 

[everyday math]

Did I just hear Tactical bacon? Nom nom nom

 

[BigJonsson]

MSNBC just went to NBC special report........maybe they have a big update?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Someone on Something Awful said that he's met Sunil and the suspect in the photos does not look like him.

 

[malfcn]

Is he a ghost?
or about to be ghosted?

 

[Freezie KO]

Channel 7: Police say the suspect had "explosives on him, possibly a grenade." That's probably why we were told to run.

This whole situation makes me so depressed about the fragility of life.

 

[MIMIC]

Okay, who the hell is Sunil? Is he somebody we are suppose to know? I hope they get these pieces of shit.

EDIT 3:11 EST: Naked suspect being loaded into car seems to be old footage for suspect they released earlier (wrong guy).

Brown student who went missing a few months prior to the bombings.

It may not have been an easy arrest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqo1Ad6spkY


Likely, if the above video is the capture. There were code blacks or something mentioned on the scanner.

O.O

 

[CRS]

Almost sounds like the dude knows the area and wanted a battle here

The way this is worded and it might be the case, this is going to end up really, really bad.

I hope all authorities continue with extreme caution.

 

[smokeymicpot]

How do they lost this guy. Send the dogs a helicopter anything. What is he a James Bond bad guy?

 

[Bsigg12]

Oh crap

What if it's not him

I feel bad for his family for the impending shit storm of people that don't get confirmation but go after the first name they see

 

[SummitAve]

Between the FBI, the Boston police, and the National Guard, it seems like they should be able to track this guy. Where are those chopper guys they use for LA police chases?

They weren't able to stay in the air for visibility and weather conditions or something. Pilots made it clear that once they got into the air they weren't able fly for long on the scanner, just not sure exactly why.

 

[Socreges]

And a Che Guevara shirt in one of the "missing" pics, though. Maybe it's not a religion thing or a right wing militia thing or a depressed student thing, maybe he fancies himself a revolutionary.

Mhm mhm. So you're saying he's Muslim. Just as I suspected.

pressure cooker found at scene in Watertown. not sure if it was explosive or just a pressure cooker.

 

[Mabef]

"Make sure we're not chasing ghosts."

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

One thing, the longer the chase goes on the more worried I get that he is leading everyone into a trap(s). Dude seems to know this area, I hope I'm wrong.

He's going to his volcanic lair.

[Godslay]

Feels like a trap.

 

[Cuban Legend]

So 7 news saying the suspect on the run had explosives on him... didn't that missing Sunil guy leave a note that his friend found that detailed possible suicidal themes?

If this suspect on the run is Sunil, and he's got a nade on him, he won't let them take him alive.

 

[wenis]

Oh crap

What if it's not him

Then hopefully he knows now that people are looking for him... I dunno, at this point, it's gotten so far out of control that no one can predict where this is headed.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

how the fuck is this kid escaping from an army of cops swats national guards and helicopters

How the fuck does a suspect that was in a building get out when he was encircled by police?

I'm probably mixing up suspects or just generally misunderstanding shit. No surprise though, this whole news thing is a clusterfuck given how rapidly it's developing.

I assume the fact that it's 3am makes it that much easier to escape in the dark

 

[Sajjaja]

Mhm mhm. So you're saying he's Muslim. Just as I suspected.

I lol'd.

"Make sure we're not chasing ghosts."

 

[Ryaaan14]

Now ghosts are involved? Whaaaaaaaaat

 

[Jintor]

Scanner says Dogs are being sent in...?

 

[smokeymicpot]

MSNBC just went to NBC special report........maybe they have a big update?

Pretty sure they just woke up their A team.

 

[Ashodin]

Listening to the scanner is fucking unreal. This is so much better than regular news it's not even funny. Social media really kicking ass here

 

[wsoxfan1214]

So many blind people. Pictures are right in front of you.

You mean the one where the kid is missing a distinctive mole and his eyebrows are entirely different.

So many blind people. Pictures are right in front of you.

They had a helicopter up earlier and the pilot said it was too "soupy" to see. But they just called in a flashlight/K9 unit.

 

[BigJonsson]

NBC knows the names of 2(?) people arrested tonight, but won't report them, one of the names they know the FBI got a lot of tips about

Wow, yea that really does look like him actually.
