One Marathon Bomb Suspect Killed in Shootout

Did not Col. Potter tell us—in
his video made several days ago—unequivocally, that “they” (i.e., the
shadow government authorities) would “execute” this poor hapless fellow
because (1) he knew too much and (2) they’d been publically caught in a
scam.

WATERTOWN, Mass. – Two suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing killed
an MIT police officer, injured a transit officer in a firefight and
threw explosive devices at police during their getaway attempt in a long
night of violence that left one of them dead and another still at large
Friday, authorities said as the manhunt intensified for a young man
described as a dangerous terrorist.
The suspects were identified to The Associated Press as coming from
the Russian region near Chechnya, which has been plagued by an Islamic
insurgency stemming from separatist wars. A law enforcement intelligence
bulletin obtained by the AP identified the surviving bomb suspect as
Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, a 19-year-old who had been living in Cambridge,
just outside Boston, and said he “may be armed and dangerous.”
Two law enforcement officials told the AP that Tsarnaev and the other
suspect, who was not immediately identified, had been living legally in
the U.S. for at least one year.
In Boston, still on edge over the attack on the marathon, and its
western suburbs, authorities suspended mass transit and urged people to
stay indoors as they searched for the remaining suspect, a man seen
wearing a white baseball cap on surveillance footage from Monday’s
deadly bombing at the marathon finish line.
“We believe this man to be a terrorist,” said Boston Police
Commissioner Ed Davis. “We believe this to be a man who’s come here to
kill people.”
Authorities urged residents in Watertown, Newton, Arlington, Waltham,
Belmont, Cambridge and the Allston-Brighton neighborhoods of Boston to
stay indoors. At least a quarter of a million people live in those
suburbs. All mass transit was shut down, and businesses were asked not
to open Friday. People waiting at bus and subway stops were told to go
home.
All modes of public transportation were shut down, including buses,
subways, trolleys, commuter rail and boats, said Joe Pesaturo, spokesman
for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority.
The suspects’ clashes with police
began only a few hours after the FBI released photos and videos of the
two young men, who were seen carrying backpacks as they mingled among
marathon revelers. The bombings on Monday killed three people and
wounded more than 180 others, and authorities revealed the images to
enlist the public’s help finding the suspects.
The images released by the FBI depict two young men, each wearing a
baseball cap, walking one behind the other near the finish line. Richard
DesLauriers, FBI agent in charge in Boston, said the suspect in the
white hat was seen setting down a bag at the site of the second of two
deadly explosions.
Authorities said surveillance tape recorded late Thursday showed the
suspect known for the white hat during a robbery of a convenience store
in Cambridge, near the campus of MIT, where a university police officer
was killed while responding to a report of a disturbance, said State
Police Col Timothy Alben. The officer died of multiple gunshot wounds.
From there, authorities say, the two men carjacked a man in a
Mercedes-Benz, keeping him with them in the car for half an hour before
releasing him at a gas station in Cambridge. The man was not injured.
The search for the vehicle led to a chase that ended in Watertown,
where authorities said the suspects threw explosive devices from the car
and exchanged gunfire with police. A transit police officer was
seriously injured during the chase, authorities said.
In Watertown, witnesses reported hearing multiple gunshots and
explosions at about 1 a.m. Friday. Dozens of police officers and FBI
agents were in the neighborhood and a helicopter circled overhead.
Watertown resident Christine Yajko said she was awakened at about
1:30 a.m. by a loud noise, began to walk to her kitchen and heard
gunfire.
“I heard the explosion, so I stepped back from that area, then I went
back out and heard a second one,” she said. “It was very loud. It shook
the house a little.”
She said a police officer later knocked on her door and told her
there was an undetonated improvised explosive device in the street and
warned her to stay away from the windows.
“It was on the street, right near our kitchen window,” she said.
Yajko said she never saw the suspect who was on the loose and didn’t
realize the violence was related to the marathon bombings until she
turned on the TV and began watching what was happening outside her side
door.
State police spokesman David Procopio said, “The incident in
Watertown did involve what we believe to be explosive devices possibly,
potentially, being used against the police officers.”
Boston cab driver Imran Saif said he was standing on a street corner
at a police barricade across from a diner when he heard an explosion.
“I heard a loud boom and then a rapid succession of pop, pop, pop,”
he said. “It sounded like automatic weapons. And then I heard the second
explosion.”
He said he could smell something burning and advanced to check it out
but area residents at their windows yelled at him, “Hey, it’s gunfire!
Don’t go that way!”
Doctors at a Boston hospital where a suspect in the marathon bombings
was taken and later died are saying they treated a man with a possible
blast injury and multiple gunshot wounds.
MIT said right after the 10:30 p.m. shooting that police were
sweeping the campus in Cambridge and urged people to remain indoors.
They urged people urged to stay away from the Stata Center, a mixed-use
building with faculty offices, classrooms and a common area.
The suspects’ images were released hours after President Barack Obama
and first lady Michelle Obama attended an interfaith service in Boston
to remember the dead and the wounded.
At the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, Obama saluted the resolve of the
people of Boston and mocked the bombers as “these small, stunted
individuals who would destroy instead of build and think somehow that
makes them important.”
“We will find you,” he warned.
In the past, insurgents from Chechnya and neighboring restive
provinces in the Caucasus have been involved in terror attacks in Moscow
and other places in Russia.
Those raids included a raid in Moscow in October 2002 in which a
group of Chechen militants took 800 people hostage and held them for two
days before special forces stormed the building, killing all 41 Chechen
hostage-takers. Also killed were 129 hostages, mostly from effects of
narcotic gas Russian forces used to subdue the attackers.
Chechen insurgents also launched a 2004 hostage-taking raid in the
southern Russian town of Beslan, where they took hundreds of hostages.
The siege ended in a bloodbath two days later, with more than 330
people, about half of them children, killed.
Insurgents from Chechnya and other regions also have launched a long
series of bombings in Moscow and other cities in Russia. An explosion at
the international arrivals hall at Moscow’s Domodedovo airport in
January 2011 killed at least 31 people and wounded more than 140.
