Checked and it was posted in the 10th layer of hell only, not too many sane people go there anymore.
 

The witnesses stated that the man looked "petrified."

That doesn't mean he wasn't a bomber. That just means he looked scared.

He was wearing a heavy winter coat, and was running from the cops (he jumped over some sort of security turnstile I believe). Not suspicious or anything...

the article doesn't mention who the guy was, i think it might be important.

Didn't mention his ethnicity as well...maybe to prevent panic.

Either way, he was retarded imho

People chasing you with guns because they think you are part of a terrorist ring that just killed 50 people...

STOP RUNNING, hands in the air, "Please don't shoot I'm unarmed" too difficult?

He was wearing a heavy winter coat and other witnesses said it had wires sticking out of it.

Could have been reaching under his coat for a detonation device, have to think of the safety of others first...

Heavy winter coat on in the middle of summer, come on?

PLAIN CLOTHES cops.

I don't know about you, but if three guys are chasing me where one has a visible pistol, I am hauling as$.

I don't understand them unloading 5 bullets into him though once he was subdued. Even if they were afraid he may 'detonate' something, shooting into him has an more than likely probability.

Sounds like there was more to this than we have heard.

Gotta love the eye witness accounts...

3 cops, 8 or 9 cops, 20 cops...

small automatic pistols, shotguns, "large black guns"...

3 shots, 5 shots, 6 or 7 shots...

Kinf of makes you wonder if some of these people were even there!

2: One person says the man vaulted the automatic ticket barriers as he made his way to the platforms
NO TICKET! If he wasn't a terrorist, he was still skipped out on his fare.

If they thought he was wearing a bomb they were justified in making sure he was dead before he could trigger it. We'll all know the real details in a few days.
