Gotta love how the Internet cares more about the FBI providing any and all information the very second it's obtained than letting them do their primary job.

Patience, people. The details will come. Shit's still going down.

We want it now!

:flails:

 

[everyday math]

Sounds like they're all arriving.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Wow-Radio Silence. They're closing in. This is quite the tenses.

Thank you, Mr Higgins.

Monster Energy Drinks are 2 for $4. Dude's gotta get hydrated somehow

2 for 2.50 at Jacksons. 7-11 is small time.

It's too early for local news to start broadcasting. Was trying to go to bed, but follow this for a bit longer, but that isn't going to happen I suppose.

It isn't. This is when Early Today, World News Now, and Up to the Minute normally air. Right now, they are simulcasting local Boston coverage and going an in studio special report.

 

[FalconSabre]

Really interested to hear what he has to say in this press conference. At least we know the 7/11 robbery is involved for sure now, which makes this whole thing even weirder.

Thanks.

@MichaelSkolnik 58s
there are over 9000 cops looking for suspect # 2

There's a joke here, but I dunno. Was it a fake tip? Either way, unreal.

 

[Wishmaster92]

Why the hell was he in the 7-11. Makes no sense at all.

I believe it was earlier stated that he was looking to steal money so he could leave.

 

[kassatsu]

Mt Aubrun is where the code black was. Code Black might have been officer down incoming.

He's a day older than me , damn.

Thank you, Mr Higgins.

And Baba Booey to y'all.

 

[Fjordson]

Mouth and eye socket have no resemblance at all. But seriously, more important - what about the hair? Did the missing guy had curly long hairs before he went missing?

If you Google search Sunil there are pictures of him with longer curly hair just like that.

Some pictures of Sunil look a hell of a lot like the white hat guy, but definitely not a certainty imo. The suspect photos aren't clear enough to me.

 

[GavinGT]

I wonder whether Sunil's family has responded at all to what I'm sure has been a barrage of inquires.

 

[Heel]

Heard wrong, nevermind.

 

[Freezie KO]

I don't understand why, if they just bombed the marathon and were off to do something at MIT, they're risking getting caught with robbing a 7-11.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Who calls it nine-eleven?

 

[Persona7]

Damn video feeds won't work for me.

Yes?

Go to this twitter account. https://mobile.twitter.com/kmattio

Click on the "missing" photo at the top.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Boom. There it is.

 

[FalconSabre]

Who calls it 9/11?

I was thinking the exact same thing. Never heard it referred to that way.

 

[tajd]

did he get away ?

 

[MThanded]

White cap guy. Catch him. Why the hell was he at 7-11? That is so odd.

 

[benjipwns]

sounds like this is the same as the DA statement at the top of the hour:

-something at MIT led to shooting of MIT cop
-carjacking in cambridge
-robbery attempt at 7-11
-another carjacking at some point (?)
-shootout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqo1Ad6spkY
-suspect #1 (black cap) dead
-suspect #2 (white cap) still on the loose

Year younger then me that is scary.

They better not all go into the sewer together.

 

[Smiley90]

Nobody has confirmed any of what Skolnik said, let's not put too much weight into his names, please.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Why the hell was he in the 7-11. Makes no sense at all.

One possibility: They didn't think through their plans for hiding out, and eventually ran out of food/water/cash. So they decided to take a chance and try to shoplift supplies from the 7-11.

Another: They wanted to be found, so they went to a place where they would be noticed by cameras, cause a ruckus, and die in a shootout with police after being cornered.

 

[jbug617]

To rob them

 

[pulga]

Poor choice of words, considering.

 

[Kevtones]

Look at the nose tilt. White Hat has a straight, slightly up-tilted nose. Sunil has a relative hook nose that's flat and without a bridge.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

the fact that this all came down due to him being at a fucking 7-11 is amazing.

Suspect number 1 shot confirmed by police.

 

[Oersted]

There is the confirmation. They have been involved.

 

[Mascot]

Why are CNN still going on about Nude Dude? Hasn't he been cleared?

 

[zychi]

Nobody has confirmed any of what Skolnik said, let's not put too much weight into his names, please.

the police are doing a press thing on channel 7, they confirmed both names, both people. and that suspect 1 is dead.

 

[everyday math]

Armed and dangerous.

Scary.

 

[smokeymicpot]

To rob them

Why do it after MIT though?

 

[LiK]

CNN are idiots

Needed some caffeine to stay up all night?

 

[tajd]

why did he call it 9/11 not 9 1 1 tho for me its 999

 

[triplestation]

think the guy in custody is being interrogated right now?

i wonder what's happening with him

 

[ZanzibarBreeze]

As far as I'm concerned it looks like the same guy. I've no problem being proven wrong if that's the case; but I have no idea why people don't see the resemblance. It's almost 1:1 to me.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

OH FUCK ME CNN, They really want that naked guy to be the brains so they have EXCLUSIVE things

Unless you're just into self-torture, switch to FOX. I know people have negative feelings, but they are kicking the shit outta CNN, and have been for the last two and a half hours. I have both on, and CNN is way behind and out of their minds.

 

[alr1ght]

hours ago. CNN is a joke.
