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

Believable. Police described them as having explosives on them when they were at MIT
 
someone mentioned that the names went over on the police scanner. I didn't them say it, but I had it on low.

Geez, going to sleep, even though I'm just going to be shit at work tomor...in 4 hours.

We're screw, Meier, Screwwwweed
 
So the dead guy was one of the Boston bombers?

Yes, he was just confirmed in the press conference to be the Andrew Dice Clay looking one on the right (suspect #1):

Wow the speculation that they were at MIT planting bombs to blow up tomorrow and were caught by the resident officer or whatever is chilling.
 
wow, it's possible that the MIT officer who died is a real hero. He may have noticed the man from the FBI pictures and tried to apprehend him, but the suspect shot him.
 
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.

Is that confirmed time table?

I thought they said they shot the MIT officer, car jacked someone(who escaped at the gas station where they refilled), then the police began chasing them.
 
Holy shit.

This went from me seeing the photos in the live interview by the FBI, to a chase and 1 suspect dead in under 12 hours. That is fast.

Stay safe U.S-GAF!
 
Id wager they intended to bomb MIT and maybe other targets today. Having robbed 7-11 likely got the funds to get out of town but by setting up explosives to go off today they could trick people into thinking still in town as they flee.

Would be an effective strategy to escape and throw people off but Cop ruined their plan
