Gunfire/explosions in Watertown, town next to Cambridge. Apparently tied to MIT situation. http://editors.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2013/04/mit_incident_update.php … via @TPM

Two "Middle Eastern men"...carjacking...heading to NY...one armed...one with slight facial hair...one has darker skin....about 5-7 and 5-9 tall.

"Shots fired from vehicle"


THEY HAVE EXPLOSIVES/GRENADES

UPDATE: If you are just tuning in there was a report of a carjacking by two Middle Eastern males about 30 minutes ago. From what I can gather they took off for NYC. Along the way they began shooting at cops and then started throwing grenades. They have been forced out of the car in Watertown, MA. Now they have placed "packages" around the area.

2 suspects in custody.

it's very likely they're the same fucks who bombed the marathon tbh, and they're probably students or graduates from massachusetts institute of technology. dudes were pissed at the current educational system and decided to avenge it. it would be a davastating scandal to such a prestigious school and the government would certainly cover up the whole shit to protect the school's reputation just like how they covered up the truth of 9/11 for saudi arabia.

it takes good technical knowledge to make those two bombs that could kill 3 persons while wounding 100 more, and i guess 90% of the nation's population are not capable of making those bombs even if you give them step-by-step instruction.

One Marathon bombing suspect has been caught, and another is on the loose in Watertown after a firefight with police, officials said.

Take it with a grain of salt
