NBC citing sources saying a "strong possibility" that it's the Marathon bombers but not definite.

Seems hard to believe it is not them, unless it is possible to make a bomb in a few days.

Yes.

The police have confirmed that they are looking for the guys from Monday's Boston Marathon Bombing. Guy with white hat still at large.

This is too creepy... I don't want to speculate but why are they evacuating families, what if they've been planting bombs for a few weeks, or something.. this is just insane.. no one would be looking at them closely prior to the marathon tragedy....

Sounds like the police are going to be doing a quick press conference soon if I heard that right on the scanner.

Anyone watching MSNBC? They have this eye witness from his apartment by the window explaining what happened while the bomb squad robot is in the car 50 ft from his window. :banghead:

That's the one I'm talking about.

The evacuating is also concerning. I hope they didn't have more bombs installed ahead of the marathon.

I have a feeling the police officer they killed earlier today was just to gain everyone's attention. like someone else posted, they/he may be luring the police to something big right now.

I ain't sleeping today either.

This is LIVE and the coverage in a few hours is going to be crazy.

And the Tripathi family might have taken the FB page down because they were getting harassed, who knows. But their posts ARE CREEPY AS HELL.

I want to do something for the next hour but I've been glued to my computer since I heard about this MIT shooting.

I can't keep my mind off of it.

It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. That's the crazy screwed up world we live in. Anything good and be used for evil unfortunately.
