EXPLOSION @ Boston Marathon

Welp.

@NewsBreaker: BREAKING: NBC's Pete Williams says marathon bombing suspects came from oversees. Had only been in US for a yr. Both had military background
Crazy I hope it's Al- Qaeda or the Taliban otherwise if their sent from another country or another organization we are gonna end up in another war.

So now CNN is saying they need to contact their family first before they release the names.  Now it sounds like they are American.   What is going on?   Conflicting report after conflicting report.
 
Suspicious package found at 500 memorial drive was just confirmed by police that its not a threat. Bomb squad at Watertown is searching the of the suspect
 
How are they military trained from overseas?
Aren't they 1. american and 2. haven't people said they went to high school/college with them?

what am i missing
 
msnbc is killing cnn right now, showing mad videos with audio from the shootings earlier. they are now interviewing eye witnesses
 
@MichaelSkolnik: NBC says both suspects are not American born, have been here for a year with military training overseas. would debunk missing brown student.

The clearest picture yet doesn't look like Sunil IMO.
 
Too much to follow right now...hopefully there is a clearer picture of what's been going on and who exactly these guys were later in the day and the coming days.

RIP to the innocent people that lost their lives and stay safe to anyone in the area where all of this is going on
 
They only said foreign military training on the news no specific location. Haven't heard of the reports saying that they are American's and went to school in the USA.

IMO They could be immigrants since the body of the first suspect is at the hospital and his identification hasn't been reported yet. Then again it's too soon

eye witness said suspect #1 ran at the cops shooting his guns and got dropped, the second suspect ran into a car and floored it at the cops and made it through and escaped
 
Yeah I'm going to bed.
Hopefully they catch this guy.
There should be better info as time goes by.
 
The reports about a gas station was because the victim in the carjacking was released at the shell gas station in memorial drive. The 711 was robbed not a gas station
