According to the news over here, the apprehended individual is one of the bombing suspects. hats off to the law enforcement community who acted really fast and decisive on this one!

[Allen]

Sources reporting 1st suspect is dead.

About half hour ago the came across the scaner that they would be slowing down the manhunt for the other. The guy was droping bombs as he was running and bombs are all over the place and they are afrad they may step on one. Bomb disposal is trying to get them but the plan is to try to contain the guy in the area and wait for daylight.

[Dumonceau]

I sincerely hope that the other individual is apprehended alive for questioning. Eliminating monsters can be a good thing, extracting information is better.

[Allen]

Dosn't sound likely. First guy had a bomb on him confirmed by scanner warning to police.

Update, 1 DEAD

I've been tuned into the scanners for over 2 hours now, one suspect dead, the other still on the loose. They have a perimeter set up, clearing house/building by house/building , street by street. The evacuated-displaced residents are being boarded on city buses from what I can tell.

I heard a recording of the firefight with the first suspect, multiple volleys of gunfire followed by a powerful blast(apparent suicide vest). In the last 20 minutes, Boston PD Chief was on the radio warning ALL Officers/Agents that the second suspect may have an explosive vest and a long barreled weapon.

Just now, EMS is being called to the BPD command post for 3 injured Officers(not sure how they were injured).

Scary situation!

Wait'll we get the background on these guys . . .

EDIT - FoxNews, Yahoo are reporting these guys are either from Chechnya or an area near Chechnya - they are generally from the same crowd that took those Russian schoolchildren hostage several years ago and wound up killing a number of them, plus others, before dying themselves during the rescue by the Russian Army. Putting their pictures out to the media last night spooked them into losing their cool. The (apparent) use of bomb vests by both individuals indicates their willingness to be taken alive (none) - not afraid to die or take others with them. It would seem they also both (allegedly) have combat experience against US or allied troops in AF/IQ. There are many things the FBI & others are not saying (wisely) about what's happening, but everyone should note this - in the past we've heard about success after success by FBI/DHS/others re: breaking up alleged terror plots because the ring was infiltrated, sources placed, etc; these were wanna-bes and not truly dangerous people. These two brothers come from an insular community, had combat experience and motivation, and there was no advanced notice of the attack, meaning the group (if any) they belonged to has extremely good internal security. They will act decisively and aren't afraid to use deadly force. Sorry to say it, but I think we'd better get ready for more of this, with increasing frequency, in the future.

I hope number one is taken alive. Obviously, suspect number two had no intention of surrender.

[Dangerousdave26]

From Reuters

The two suspects are Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

Found on the BBC Live coverage

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22213651

FBI just confirms names per the live feed.

[Dangerousdave26]

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, aged 19 is the one still alive at this time.

[Dangerousdave26]

Per BBC live feed Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was born in Kyrgyzstan and has a Massachusetts driver's license.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev the second suspect is dead and was 26 not 20 as previously reported. He was born in Russia.

I hope number one is taken alive.

Me as well, then use micro explosives to systematically blow off parts of his body........

Me as well, then use micro explosives to systematically blow off parts of his body........

But first apply a dentist drill to his teeth to see how well he jumps in the dental chair while being restrained........

[Rami]

Hey guys,

People in the Boston area are heeding the warning and staying indoors under lock and key. Boston and the surrounding western suburbs are in lockdown mode and are virtual ghost towns. This in unprecedented, but understandable given the conditions.

[Dangerousdave26]

Some speculation that he is in Connecticut

1445:

Police in the neighboring state of Connecticut have put out a alert for a vehicle that could "possibly be occupied by a wanted suspect".

Nothing confirmed at this time

Every time I see that little 8 y/o boy's picture on the news I shed a tear and I think of the others that have died , and now a MIT police officer and another seriously injured . My mind just draws a blank as how a person or persons , or an organization can have so much hatred and absolutely no conscious , especially when the dead are young babies and children . My buddies and friends all tell me it's their cause . They are so dedicated to their cause . Bull s--t it's their cause ! They are pure evil and IMO they are not even part of the human race ! This is not intended to be a political statement . Just venting some rage and anger .---------------Rich

Update

1534:

Connecticut state police, updated the vehicle they were looking for has been found in Boston.

[Dumonceau]

My most positive thoughts go out to the people of the Boston Area. I hope all of you will be safe and the monster apprehended!
