CBS News is saying that they built a bomb just like the one they used at the Boston Marathon and threw it at police last night, but it didn't explode as intended. Also built several pipe bombs. They were definitely planning something else.

Well, that would answer the question of why they didn't just get on the first flight out of Boston.

 

[bob_arctor]

Shiiittttt. Gotta pick up the kids! Damn.

 

[NateDrake]

I wonder how many law enforcement officers are on scene total.

Saw earlier on CNN that 9,000 officials were in Watertown.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

haha what? are they trying to smoke him out?

That's how they would get me, I can tell you.

 

[BruiserBear]

Their father in Russia says they've been framed. Who am I to question his claims?!?

 

[Ruze789]

Heading up to New Hampshire from Rhode Island now.... Hoping to just for straight through the tunnel under Boston quick and get out of there

You may wanna take 95 instead of 93.

Or 495, which avoids a lot of the already higher than average traffic on a Friday afternoon. It adds about 10-15 minutes of drive time but cuts out all the traffic hassle.

Unreal, thanks.

If this was 5 hours ago this scanner activity (with window opening on roof, suspicious vehicle) would have been a big deal. There is so much of this though that I just assume its nothing.

 

[jacket320]

I have a very hard time believing that is real. For someone to leak such a pic that quickly would be rather surprising.

The description by CBS just now on the air matches this picture perfectfully

 

[Winterfang]

Off topic but this guy looks fucking awesome. Fantastic picture.

 

[Lonestar]

local CBS station had video footage of the 2 suspects Dad, back in Russia. Translation is similar to the aunt. Feeling like they were setup, the family's never picked up "arms", escaped the country when war broke out.

 

[WARP10CK]

A whole town under siege and still they have not found the bastard where the hell could he be ??

 

[Steelrain]

Free food and being allowed to wander the streets armed. Fuck I might toss an application to my local SWAT team.

I was going to try to do this a while back....I think you have to serve a certain amount of time on patrol duty before you go to SWAT.....fuck that.

Then again, it might depend on the department.

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

Uncle of the brothers is officially way cooler than the father

 

[LycanXIII]

Their father in Russia says they've been framed. Who am I to question his claims?!?

If they were framed, why would they fight back and run?

 

[demon]

Our army..?

I thought he meant the Boston police force.

 

[LakeEarth]

We don't know how quickly the FBI found out who the suspects most likely were. They delayed giving info to the public. I don't think they could have gotten out of the country unless they literally boarded a flight right after the marathon.

Chances are they waited at the airports for movement. When that didn't happen, they released the images. Of course, if the suspects had a flight scheduled on Monday, I'm sure they would've gotten out scot free.

Jealous of dat hair.

Jake Gyllenhaal will have to put on a few pounds to play him tho.

There's zero traffic on the highways. No one went to work, and if they did they got sent home.

 

[riskVSreward]

This thread has exposed me to a lot of fellow RI Gaffers... we should all go out for drinks at Doherty's or Trinity.

 

[smr00]

I doubt they'll assume he's dead if they dont find him within 48 hours.

I am talking about if they had 0 leads and 0 sightings. I assume from whats been going on lately they have had sightings and information so i doubt hes dead in a gutter somewhere.

But who knows.

If he didn't look like he was adjusting his chubby

Or just come to Texas. ^.^

someone's going to cast him as Matt Damon

 

[TheJollyCorner]

man, that's a badass vehicle.

 

[Fenderputty]

Thanks for posting. Honestly it's a shame we never got a picture like this of Osama Bin Laden. The American public deserves to see these things to give proper closure.

Picture didn't give me closure. Made me sad to see someone lifeless because he had misguided hate in his heart. Made me wonder why any of this had to happen. Picture saddened me greatly.

did the father really just say his kids where framed??? hollywood can't even write this shit up.

But they will.

Well, that would answer the question of why they didn't just get on the first flight out of Boston.

Yeah they're describing their residence as a "bomb making factory" and the things they designed were old school types of bombs that can be made using online resources for directions and the materials don't cause suspicion.

 

[Zeth]

Aunt is "obviously distraught and in denial" thanks Brolf!

 

[commedieu]

Is that swat, or military wearing fatigues?

 

[BruiserBear]

If they were framed, why would they fight back and run?

When you've been framed well enough they'll even make you fight back, as part of the framing! False flag operations are complicated bro!

 

[StrikerObi]

Our army..?

Obviously. What I mean is that look at how many police officers we sent after two dudes. Now imagine how many of our soldiers would be out there for a full war.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

As long as they had no knowledge of it ahead of time, I can't blame immediate family for being in denial.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Off topic but this guy looks fucking awesome. Fantastic picture.

He does look pretty badass. And dat trigger discipline.

What if this dude has another like... mega bomb planted somewhere. Cause he's insane and evidently good at making bombs.

Dudes gonna get more pussy after this than the NASA mohawk guy!

My receding hairline wheeps.

 

[smokeymicpot]

He is in denial at least I hope he is.

 

[Downhome]

If they were framed, why would they fight back and run?

It's what they do in the movies, as they attempt to clear their name.

Yeah, that doesn't work in real life.

And that isn't the case here.

I really hope no one buys the "they were set up" deal.

 

[Psychoward]

Can someon give cliffs of the las 9 hours or so. Last thing I read one suspect got sho and ran over. Suspect 2 escaped and they still weren't sure about motives or country of origin.

 

[LiK]

out for blood

rated PG-13

 

[Kacho]

It's cute how naive the father is being.

 

[creationtheory]

If they find him they should shoot him in the legs so many times he has to have them amputated.

 

[RyanReedyMusic]

How many in here believe there is a setup. Its hard to believe if there is a manhunt involved. Its almost like no one can believe anything but what they see.

 

[Ruze789]

There's zero traffic on the highways. No one went to work, and if they did they got sent home.

Ooops right, forgot about that minor detail despite seeing pictures all day long of empty roads and highways.
