I'm listening to my police scanner.....this is insane

Reddit has a thread of people following it, if you want to google it.

There have been reports of explosives and grenades. Also, a stolen police vehicle. I'm just relaying what others have reported....so who knows.

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

Reports that he could have an IED.

Reports that Mt. Auburn hospital is being evacuated, I have not found source for that info. Others are reporting this as false, which I'd believe since the scanner has said nothing about it.

Some are saying the scanner said "Party outstanding is white hat from the photos"

My scanner is in and out, so I did not hear that....if it was said...
