I'm very confused right now? Is the guy in the woods or in a garage or what?

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Almost 7AM here, I need some sleep badly but can't stop listening to the scanner. I hope they find him soon.

 

[MrCunningham]

Nobody knows. The original image was a crop without the guy outside.

Ah, well if that is the case, they probably cropped him out for a reason.

 

[kassatsu]

lmao

Peeing in bushes during manhunt seemed like bad idea. Now in morning light, seems worse. #ReporterProblems

[Svafnir]

How is he not apprehended yet? This is crazy. Been following this for like 4 hours now, going to go to sleep soon. Hopefully when I wake up the madness is over.

Yeah this a crazy big situation, they got the first guy fairly quick though.

 

[darkbanjo]

Somerville isn't part of the danger area right?

 

[GG-Duo]

Can someone explain that slur earlier. I don't even know what that means. It clearly sounded ignorant but I never heard of it before.

Lets just move on.

 

[I'm new be nice]

Why does reddit have the scoop on this?

Lots of people get their news from that site and they are all about to wake up. The sites already struggling to run.

scanner - 48 irving street, resident reports noises in his garage

Lets hope this dude doesn't have a smartphone or other means of monitoring a police scanner...

 

[Wes]

CNN: "Suspect number 1 is dead right now."

Unsure on death status going forward.

Reminds me of the cookie cutter dudes safe moist as dudes guy.

 

[Fifty]

It's crazy how the actions of 2 people can shut down an entire city like this. Terrorism is terrible but damn it gives hopeless scumbags power.

 

[Professor Beef]

It's about 3 AM now, and i'm tapping out. Hopefully when i wake up, there'll be some good news.

 

[MThanded]

Oh ok. I understand.

@susantran OMG, was that the person ducking in the bushes

LOL

 

[The Albatross]

Just woke up... This is insane. I work in natick which doesn't seem to be one of the no-travel towns at this point.

 

[grimshawish]

This...is insane.
So what was all last night about? I went to bed when they arrested some guy.

Stay safe Bostgaf

 

[neptunes]

I wonder what people do when they actually need to go to a store to buy essential stuff like.

Baby formula, food, OTC medicine etc

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

What I want to know is, why were these two suspects still in MA? I thought they would've booked it out of the country...

 

[TheKaeptain]

Can someone explain that slur earlier. I don't even know what that means.

Even without the meaning I know its intention is ridiculous hateful.

I think it had more to do with terroist=arab mentality.

 

[outunderthestars]

So is the speculation that a group booby trapped the town? It's likely that the two suspects also did it before hand, that is before the robbery.

So far there hasn't been any confirmed devices outside of the shootout/car chase.

 

[Riggs]

What the fuck is going on ....

 

[Etrian Oddity]

Oh shit, requesting less-lethal shotguns on the scene. [scanner]

channel 5: going into home on dexter

 

[XxBlackHulkxX]

It definitely makes me think of a much lower scale The Dark Knight Rises with the way this has gone. Especially now with the whole city seemingly being shut down for the time being.

As long as they don't send every cop to one location.

WCVB: Police going into home on Dexter Ave.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Did i hear less lethal shotguns?

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

Why do they need less lethal shotguns at the mall?

For the press?

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

Holy shit, I didn't even know this was happening until moments ago. I've read this summary on reddit, is it correct/still up to date?

 

[lenovox1]

How is he not apprehended yet? This is crazy. Been following this for like 4 hours now, going to go to sleep soon. Hopefully when I wake up the madness is over.

The sun is coming up, so there's going to be a huge sweep of the area. He can't get anywhere without stealing another car. We should hear something soon.

 

[cdkee]

What I want to know is, why were these two suspects still in MA? I thought they would've booked it out of the country...

Seems like they were planning some stuff for MIT.

 

[ThisWreckage]

If this guy does indeed have a military background he may be far, far away at the moment. Look at how long Dorner survived, for example.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Less leathel shotguns to Arsenal mall?!

 

[Game-Biz]

Can someone explain that slur earlier. I don't even know what that means.

Probably was in reference to this:

[Tugatrix]

Did i hear less lethal shotguns?

yup i heard it too

 

[VALIS]

Did they just call for "less lethal shotguns?" I'm not sure what that means. Bean bag guns? But maybe I didn't hear it right.

 

[J-Rzez]

Oh shit, requesting less-lethal shotguns on the scene. [scanner]

Yeah, they probably got orders to take this guy alive. But I can't see the FBI allowing the townies to handle this. Unless someone forgot theirs at home....

 

[Jburton]

less lethal shotguns available.


They want this guy alive, especially the FBI ..... sleeper cells are usually more than 2 people, need that info.

 

[UFRA]

lmao

LMAO ok that certainly lightened the mood for a sec.

Scanner now has requests for less lethal shotguns.

 

[sangreal]

....they stopped searching over 2 hours ago lol. waiting for sunlight

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

Maybe tasers? Rubber? Pepper balls?

Isn't the mall where they told the press to gather?

 

[enzo_gt]

So they have the perimeter of the area surrounded, right? So what's the tactical reason behind not slowly contracting that perimeter to zero in on him?

 

[The Albatross]

Somerville isn't part of the danger area right?

Right now @WBUR: Police ask people in following communities to stay indoors: Watertown, Newton, Waltham, Belmont, Cambridge, Allston/Brighton -- no but close

 

[Jintor]

lmao

She's doing kickass work, I can excuse her

Although their man on the scene is by far the best of the bunch

 

[Veitsev]

Why do they need less lethal shotguns at the mall?

For the press?

Why don't you ask your LEO friend?

 

[Fjordson]

That's what they said. Trying to take him alive I'd guess, but I'm also not sure what less lethal means specifically.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Why do they need less lethal shotguns at the mall?

Wasn't the mall the staging area? Maybe they are going to distribute them from there.

 

[Kinky John]

Did they say anything else about the Mack truck?
