That is not the guy. That guy is unrelated.

Why the hell did they rob a 7-11?

Then kill a police officer?

Then Carjack someone and let that person live?

So erratic, such a weird turn of events tonight. I hope they get this fucker alive.
 
I have no problem with that statement. It was important to give the public the instructions for their safety. There'll be time for names and details later when the general public is not in danger with a terrorist on the loose.
 
What the hell?

I clearly heard them say "we aren't giving out names or descriptions at this time" like 1 minute ago.

Come on people...

very beginning of the press conference, channel 7 was still setting up their camera, but the audio clearly said white hat guys name.

e: i'm watching the stream, not tv, so i have no way to prove this.
 
This guy isn't going to knock on your door if he wants to get in your house... Sorry to say this.
 
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.

I think the first possibility makes more sense.
 
A friend of mine who writes promos for WBZ (4) copied this tweet to Facebook-

The #MIT cop who saw these guys gave his life and saved so many MIT student's lives. They were gonna bomb MIT. He is a true hero. #THANKS
 
So...talking to a LEO friend. Apparently there were bombs at Brown that went unsolved that were linked to Sunil.

There's no way that isn't Mr. white capped bomber suspect. Now is this bomber suspect the missing student? That is another question.

they most likely needed money in order to finance an escape from boston.

I imagine the officer tried to stop them at some point.

Then they needed a vehicle to try and escape.

All makes sense to me...
 
i thought they tried to do something at mit, but after killing the mit cop, the plan failed
so now they're panicking, maybe low on cash, then decided to rob 7-11 and a car?
don't see what's so confusing

This is my mind of thinking right now as well. I think they may have been planning something bigger on MIT before being caught.
