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.

Hey SC, thanks for this thread. Reddit was down this morning, I went to bed early last night, and woke up wondering WTF was going on. Twitter's been a little help but all of your posts helped me catch up.

hug

Also, good to see you! Wave hug

Somebody just tweeted this "pic from my house"

Asking for tracking dogs on Laurel and Dexter

That's crazy!

They got a bunch of national guard in sometime this morning. They have a ton of snipers in trees as well as on buildings.

Quote from Binar :
"Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev" this is not a middle eastern name. Looks like a cecen name

Who Is Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Man at the Center of the Boston Manhunt?

It is believed that the suspect has explosives on his person. That is probably why people are being cleared out.

Right, I mean something was going on right where they had been for some time.

They just said suspect lived there. Sounds like they were trying to clear the area.
