"This is still extremely dangerous," - FBI officers

Wasn't close enough to really see suspect. Was a male in white shirt. Not going to speculate his race.

Reading tweets from a popular local and saying 2nd suspect may not be involved. Gosh only knows but I have my tried and true to trust.

They are worried about the phones setting off the explosives.

It's serious, guys. Second officer down. Reports of hand grenades and explosions in Watertown (near Boston). Could these be our suspects on the run? This kind of stuff does NOT happen every day in Boston, I don't care what neighborhood you're referring to.

Its on CNN live -

We don't know that there were only 2 marathon suspects. Perhaps there was a third suspect we haven't heard about yet -- someone behind the scenes. Whatever is going on, this is VERY unusual for Boston. We might have a shooting or two from time to time but I've never heard of grenades, explosions, and crazy shoot-outs with cops that cross city lines in my time living here. City under siege. Damn scary, here -- whatever it is.

Darn right its scary. FBI days there's two suspects. If there were more, wouldn't they have found chatter of some kind?

News is saying 1 suspect in MIT shooting is in the hospital now, they're looking for the other (white) suspect now. Fox News I'm watching it live.

CNN just showed one of the guys on the ground, don't know if it's a suspect or a witness.

1 suspect in MIT shooting still at large.

1 suspect in MIT shooting in custody. I think that's the one going to the hospital unless I'm misunderstanding the dynamic.

They're speaking of 2 incidents that they don't have the authority to say are connected yet.

Very rough timeline here.

Possible 7-11 robbery.
The MIT cop was shot after that, right after 10:30pm.
The carjacking occurred after he was shot.
The shootout occurred after the carjacking.

We have one dead officer and at least one more down.
