The scanner clearly stated "2 officers down" right at the beginning, around when there was a ton of gunfire being reported.

Moreover, all non-assigned officers are falling back to Arsenal Mall.

Apparently another pressure cooker was just found in Watertown, probably a bomb but no confirmation.
Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
You here at last on the ground,
Me in mid-air.
Send in the hounds.
Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move.
Where are the hounds?
Send in the hounds.
Just when I'd stopped
Opening doors,
Finally knowing
The one that I wanted was yours,
Making my entrance again
With my usual flair,
Sure of my lines,
No one is there.
Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want -
Sorry, my dear.
But where are the hounds?
There ought to be hounds.
Quick, send in the hounds.
Don't bother - they're here.

Can't help myself but was thinking of some cheesy stunt in a hollywood movie, like Die Hard3.

Scanner reported 2nd officer down when they were taking the 1st suspect. Unclear on the extent of his injuries.
Thanks but I'm getting access denied. That's the one I was on.

Sunglasses guy used himself as a distraction to let white-hat guy get away?
Yeah, that is basically what went down on the scanner

no, but we all got links to it and know about it via social media.
If IEDs were in fact, planted, they want to go down guns blazing. We're most likely not going to get him alive, he'll off himself like the scumbag loser coward he is. We won't know why they did it, and good, no reason to glorify them. If they're related to a terrorist cell, one will claim ties.
Seriously though, I really want to know what's happened in the last half hour.

This whole Sunil thing is ridiculous. There is nothing linking him to the bombing. He might share a few similar features but that's not a crime. I'd rather we not slander someones name with no proof whatsoever.

Just turned on computer so forgive me if this has been asked a ton of times:
Any evidence so far that this incident is related to the marathon bombings?

NBC saying stronger possibility that this is connected to marathon
Wait for the fucking real reporting, or official statements. Trusting fucking reddit and other amateurs will just make you look stupid (if not do harm). Hell they may get it right eventually, but the amount of garbage they are likely to spread before getting to the truth seems far more likely. You aren't fucking Batman. You don't have all the information. Yeah the internet is great and it feels good to feel like you are part of something useful, but that's the exact same feeling every conspiracy theorists thrives on. Look at that fucking collage of photos that went around yesterday that turned out to contain no suspects. Not only that, but they were claiming a couple of the men were private security and thus was a false flag operation... People had to come out to say they weren't the bombers after these reddit vigilantes started pointing fingers.

my cake, fuck off
I've been saying this for hours. Crazy people in here.
Damn, if it really is this kid, this video is fucking heartbreaking =(

any word on the officers down?
He'd probably get off on it.
My apologies, I thought the MIT officer was confirmed. I'm just going to hush and hope this ends soon and with as little drama as possible.

I really hope it isn't the missing kid. His family and friends are going to be devastated.
