Two main suspects walking together caught on CCTV carrying a bag each. The one man is seen putting the bag down to where the second explosion went off and caught fleeing the scene without a bag.

Seems like there is a police operation in progress at the MIT campus nearby, F.B.I involvement and all mobile phone devices being turned off.......

No doubt we will find out soon what that's all about!

BBC have reported that the car chase and shooting earlier was the 2 suspects from the marathon. One has been shot and killed the other is so far on the run.

Crazy stuff. Had another notification from sky news basically saying what you've said Billy.

I wonder if the remaining suspect will attempt to kill more people while on the run? Surely he couldn't have simply escaped the police that easily..

I would have thought they'd prefer a non lethal way of capturing them so that they can find out who put them up to it?

They are blowing up the wrong country .... the US vaguely supports Chechnya.

Anybody else watching this on the news? Looks like Team USA has brought in half it's itchy trigger finger army to deal with this, you woulden't catch me within 100 miles of all those gun wielding nutters.

The fathers on the news urging the scum to give himself up. The father could be the ring leader.

Can't understand how these people get into the US, I find it hard enough just trying to get in for my hols!

It's the uncle you dozy twonk, and the odds of him being in any way involved are probably no better than of you ever becoming a brain-surgeon.

Not another keyboard warrior, this place is full of the likes of you, but I can guarantee you wouldn't address me like that if you met me personally without you getting your neck squeezed just a little bit.

Now run along, there's a good little lad
