*Keep in mind that this is a live-update feed and no info can be confirmed with 100% certainty yet.
Police are in a standoff with who they believe to be the Boston Marathon Bomber(s). Lots of gunfire already. One MIT cop shot dead on Thursday night. More explosions have been set, including at least one at Harvard Quad.
Suspect, at least according to the thread, includes at least one white male with dark curly hair in a black hoodie. One suspect (not sure if the same guy) is also believed to be the one in the backwards white cap we saw in the pics above.
These guys will be caught dead or alive by morning.
*update: at least one suspect is believed to have died in the battle.
People in Watertown, MA (Hell, everyone in the whole MA area) just stay indoors and safe. Don't go outside. I would even take tomorrow off and stay indoors considering they could be leaving bombs all over the place.
Grenades are believed to be involved, and one video showing the gunfight sounded like an automatic/semi auto (sorry, i have no idea what I am talking about, but they were rapidly fired rounds) and 100s of rounds fired.
Mercedes in Cambridge was carjacked by the suspects earlier. Stay indoors and stay safe!
Pressure cookers were found at the crime scene
