Reports of explosions at 2013 Boston Marathon

http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/roommate_calls_saudi_national_quiet_vKFFJMC0WCaQmAofxNDHmO

According to the New York Post a Saudi national is in custody and the police have searched his apartment. His roommate described him as quiet and "a good boy" who couldn't have done such a thing.

That was claimed yesterday, but, outside of Murdoch-world, the cops say they have nobody in custody

I've read that the AP says the Saudi in question has been cleared as a suspect, but his apartment was searched.

My information was incomplete but a search warrant was issued and his apartment searched as mentioned above. Also, the original article I posted has been edited to say the man was recently ruled out.

*edit* Just trying to clear up any confusion I've unintentionally inserted into this thread.

Also, no warrant was issued. He voluntarily allowed his room to be searched.
 
And now the Westboro idiots are planning on picketing the funerals of the victims. (Pick your news source.) :mad:
 
Dear local and national media,

Please stop making sh*t up and reporting it as news. We are on edge enough as it is.

Thank you, The City of Boston.
 
And please stop interviewing people who can't function in front of a camera.
 
^^^ At least you don't have Pat Collins. He's been on the air on NBC Channel 4 in DC for years and HE always seems like he's on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Every story he covers is like the end of the fucking world, and he delivers his "reports" with overly dramatic histrionics, complete with pregnant pauses for added effect. He truly is a douche to watch and I cringe every time they switch over to him.
 
Wolf Blitzer drives me crazy, too. He's like a carnival barker. These guys need to brush up on their Walter Cronkite.
 
R.I.P.

Pat Collins drives me batshit insane. I have to mute the television when he's on.
 
And tomorrow's story is here.

A shootout at MIT with one officer killed, followed by a major shootout in Watertown Massachusetts with the perps carjacking a police SUV and one of the gunmen tossing grenades. The police told everyone to stay off their cellphones for fear of detonating unexploded bombs. At least one of them is in custody.
 
Local Boston station...

The Watertown suspects are also the Boston Marathon bombing suspects. One suspect killed, second suspect at large. NBC : Source says pressure cooker found at Watertown crime scene

And just over the police radio, there is a device with wires in Watertown.

The police conference it's insane, Watertown is believed to be connected. Will no admit if suspects are alive or dead.
