Boston Bombing Suspects - MIT Shooting - Manhunt

[spacer]

you realize, not everyone listens to the news, and checks the internet before they go out of their house

I do realize that. But the chances that someone didn't turn on a TV, phone, or radio between the time they woke up and left the house is very slim. And after they left their house, didn't they notice NO ONE was around? Or see a heightened police presence? If they were in a car, they didn't have the radio on?

I just find it hard to believe more than a handful of people who live in an urban are like that are so disconnected from all of those forms of communication.

the whole event starting yesterday?

[trag3dy]

CBS is saying they initially robbed the 7-11 which is where those most recent pictures are from yesterday.

They're also saying they may have had rifles at that point, too.

I've been listening to CNN the whole time, I never heard anything about conspiracy... you sure you aren't listening to ONN?

CNN mentioned police talking to 'associates' and said this may lead to a more people being involved.

I was listening to a CNN reporter in the background and she was repeating the word "conspiracy" (without saying anything else of course) at least five times per minute!

initially this started with a robbery at a 7-11 which went to MIT and thus the older brother was caught in a firefight with police and died.

I was just watching the live stream when they went to the current situation, they were indeed talking about conspiracy and that this could be a broader thing..

yeah never heard cnn say a word about conspiracy, sometimes I think people want to turn something that isn't into one

[xendrome]

Well I do want to point out, the definition of "conspiracy" is "an agreement of 2 or more persons to commit a crime".

Apparently Fox is reporting gun shots near watertown crime scene, maybe not related?

If there was reports of shots fired, it would have come up on the scanners which it has not.

[xendrome]

The CRV was abandoned.

Sounds like SWAT is about to move into that house that the ~60 year old guy came out of.

[Kreuger]

[jerzdawg]

Watertown streets are being reopened.

have to imagine there is a reason why they can reopen the streets...right?

[Kreuger]

One would assume it would mean it's safe. But assumptions are bad.

Something happened, just question is what, there was a large response of swat now this

"Jeff Bauman, who lost both legs in Boston attack, helped ID suspects" (that's the guy we saw the pictures of with no legs but only bones left)

[Kreuger]

There was report of a garbage truck blocking a road (I think) and they said it's not garbage day.
