MA state police are now advising Watertown residents to stay inside behind locked doors & 'do not open the door if anyone knocks' & stay away from their windows

Very scary, Watertown is usually a peaceful quiet place.
 
Watching WHDH's stream, and loving the one guy (Kerry?) they've got on the street. Seems very together, and showing lots of restraint with the info he's privy to.

POLICE Information UPDATE:

The suspect that got shot was transported to a hospital and died was suspect# 1 with the black hat.

The one that got away is the white cap dude and may possibly be the same person as the missing Brown University student.

This video/picture was from a Cambridge 7-11 last night:

Police pic of suspect

One MIT Officer killed was the one that IDed them on campus, another officer critically injured... the suspects took their guns and long guns.

They escaped by car jacking a Mercedes SUV and driving through some police cop cars while tossing gernades and shooting out with the cops.

So since there's a list of police scanner feeds (as well as up to the minute updates on reddit) for the police chatter what's preventing the suspect from listening in on the news? Did they shut down all the wifi/internet/cell towers?
 
This. Nothing but a bunch of fucking idiots. Mods should ban all of these morons from this forum.

Correct idiots.:hmm:

btw, I'm pretty sure you misread the last thing you quoted me on.

Also by the way, this is just completely insane, and normally I would say many of the same things you have, but in this case, those instincts were wrong. Start to finish social media has been all over this case and provided several high quality tips to police. Watching this unfold all night has kept me on the edge of my seat like I haven't been over a news story since we invaded Iraq the first time. The nature and speed of the flow of information is just stunning. I literally can not wait until the entire picture comes into focus.

😱 That's pretty hardcore, where the hell did they get grenades from?
 
From REDDIT:

EDIT 4:36 EDT: Suspect 1 was confirmed dead at Mt. Auburn, not Mass General. My mistake.
EDIT 4:35 EDT: CNN is showing Naked Man. He is NO LONGER A SUSPECT. CNN is old news.
EDIT 4:34 EDT: Suspect 1 died to explosive attached to chest! White Hat might have one as well.
EDIT 4:34 EDT: "White Hat" reported to have explosive device on him.
EDIT 4:31 EDT: Suspect "White Hat" has been spotted
