you watching Fox "news" :headshake:

I am NOT - just received that bit of information from Fox. The rest I am following LIVE and in most cases you will see I am faster than the news channel.

Cool down....it wasn't a serious post. BTW, where exactly are you right now - your updates really are faster than news channels.

I still can't figure out this.. How these two robbed a store? and what was the reason for that? They should have know that this would trigger the whole manhunt thing.. DM any inside?

He is listening to the Boston PD police scanner. Most up to date source of new info , though some of it is not vetted

EDIT 187 1:02: Possible house with hostage located.

TBH Fox news has been way better with this incident. CNN has nothing to show and they are **** scared about saying anything ever since the **** up 2-3 days ago

Unfortunately, that may actually be the case. More so after today's judgement in London.

But investigators said Thursday Britain's domestic spy agency of MI5 and police were able to stop Zahid Iqbal, Mohammed Sharfaraz Ahmed, Umar Arshad and Syed Farhan Hussain before they could launch the deadly attack.

Everything is off reddit from a poster who is listening to boston PD scanner

EDIT 192 1:10: Thank you for the reddit gold, I highly appreciate it. EDIT 191 1:10: A lot of garbled messages, SWAT is stepping in. EDIT 190 1:08: Front door opened, "we have the message". EDIT 189 1:07: Look if the hostage taker is reading reddit instead of listening to the scanner then he's screwing himself and we're helping the police.

Not sure if this is connected to the suspects

EDIT 194 1:14: People are telling me they said the hostage is safe.

Windows closed - no one on the roof, just a ladder spotted.

A robot is used to remove the jacket of the old man. There is definitely a device with a dead man's switch. 36 Boylston St has asked to be cleared apart from SWAT team.

This man seems to be safe.
