There is no foot pursuit.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

I don't see much of a difference between here or reddit. Both places are actively updating, taking tweets, pics, scanner updates, etc.

From my vantage point everyone's frothing at the mouth. It's entertainment now rather than news.

Yep. It's just a "we're superior to them" going on here.

 

[zychi]

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

BUT BUT THE MOLE!

 

[MIMIC]

Who is Michael Skolnik? I googled him and it said he was the political director of Russell Simmons?

Why should I care about this man?

 

[Ashodin]

Confirmed no foot pursuit, suspect not being pursued. If I was religious I'd be praying for them to be found

 

[sangreal]

did they fucking lose him

Sounds like it...

How long until CNN wakes Wolf up? He'll get to the bottom of this

 

[reptilescorpio]

WAT? is this true?

I think it is. But one or two local GAF has been disputing it, saying they didn't hear any news about explosions last month

what? anyone have further verification of this?

I live near Brown and this was never reported on local news.

This seems to be the only link I can find

 

[Wishmaster92]

EDIT 3:10 EST: Suspect lost in foot pursuit.

 

[MasLegio]

I'm headed outside, taking this fucker down myself

sweep the leg

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

There is no foot pursuit.

There goes my finish line joke...

 

[Madness]

He's of Indian descent. Described by Police as "dark white."

Sunil is a Hindu from India. Born in Kanpur. He's north Indian which is why he's a bit lighter skinned. Though I'm wondering why you folks are saying it was him? I hope not, Indian students don't deserve the extra heat that will come if it was him.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Wow. CNN should be fucking ashamed.

 

[Kamek]

There's a facebook picture of Sunil and what looks like the 2nd suspect. Obviously he's innocent until proven guilty, but it doesn't look good for him.

 

[FairXchange]

How is it possible they've lost track of this person on foot? Do they not have thermal helicopters, I see this stuff online all the time. They have the national guard deployed. Why can't their apprehend this person?

 

[Qvoth]

lost pursuit? lel
good luck ever finding the guy

 

[lenovox1]

I just want to know why the FBI took such an interest in Sunil... what the fuck was in that suicide note that triggered someone at the FBI to start looking for him after he went missing.

FBI gets involved with missing person cases after bring requested to by the local authorities. They may have just wanted to expand the search.

 

[MThanded]

So they lost this guy...

 

[Heel]

What the hell happened to the 15 shots fired, clip found and a house...?

 

[Joel Was Right]

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

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

Welp my eyes hurt. I hope I wake up and read something positive.

Stay safe boston gaf

 

[xbhaskarx]

It's odd because Sunil has a Hindu name

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.

 

[pulga]

I dont think Sunil and white cap dude are the same. The mouth and eyebrows are throwing me off.

 

[Salvor.Hardin]

Do you think if he is Sunil he would stay recognizable? Going missing for a month your face is plastered everywhere, if youre planning an attack, you do not want to be recognized.

Regardless, it's not like he could change his face structure. I really doubt the white cap guy is Sunil.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Wow, guys slow down you guys are acting like Cnn. Sunil connection is not confirmed!

 

[pappe]

I think he's Indian although he looks Caucasian from pics.

Tripathi is a very common surname in India.

 

[J-Rzez]

Wow, they have dogs of course, but don't they have Helo with IR/Thermal support?

 

[Ryaaan14]

lost pursuit? lel
good luck ever finding the guy

Shirley you're joking

 

[Snoshado]

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

Damn it. I can't believe my ears.

 

[phosphor112]

So did someone (a suspect) die at the hospital from gunshot wounds?

[Dmax3901]

I haven't been following this too closely, but I don't think it's the student going by the photos.

 

[MIMIC]

I don't see it, either (TBH)

 

[Skeyser]

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

 

[sangreal]

This seems to be the only link I can find

Brown is not in the same state as Hanover. RI is small, but seriously they're not close. Also Sunil apparently is not a Brown student anyway if other articles are to be believed

 

[benjipwns]

local 7 says one is shot and killed and the other is on the loose. i wish they got the other guy alive.

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

So did someone (a suspect) die at the hospital from gunshot wounds?

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

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

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?

 

[NateDrake]

This seems to be the only link I can find

Hanover is in Mass. Brown is in RI. So no such explosive was planted or found at Brown Univ back in March.

 

[RumblingRosco]

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.

 

[ZanzibarBreeze]

I think you guys need to stop watching CNN. They are literally hours behind. The naked guy footage is from earlier in the day. I've got no idea why they're looping it.

 

[MBison]

There's a facebook picture of Sunil and what looks like the 2nd suspect. Obviously he's innocent until proven guilty, but it doesn't look good for him.

where?

 

[vatstep]

Link?

 

[Game-Biz]

GOD DAMN.



FIND HIS ASS.

 

[RC]

He's of Indian descent. Described by Police as "dark white."

Dark white could mean anything. Again, probably best to wait for confirmation rather then dwelling in speculation.

 

[CREMSteve]

Link?

 

[Wario64]

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

 

[SenjutsuSage]

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

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

 

[Escape Goat]

Wow, guys slow down you guys are acting like Cnn. Sunil connection is not confirmed!

now isn't the time for that. Now is the time for snap judgements!

 

[Joel Was Right]

This seems to be the only link I can find

A Gaffer here says he knows and works with the reporter of that article, and that it is probably true. Although it is strange, I admit, why there aren't any more sources

So much going on. One big ass clusterfuck
