MIT Shooting

[IrishLax]

He's alive

Shocking

 

[IrishSteelhead]

They're saying that we might have a standoff situation. Maybe talking him off the ledge?

He's worth too much alive to not take this slowly. Expend all options before he ultimately chooses suicide by cop.

 

[nvirish]

This is just truly unbelievable

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Holy holy.........holy holy holy..........

 

[RuntheBall]

Alive. They are worried about a 5 gallon thing of gas on the boat and its possible use as an explosive. He just sat up, so he is alive.

 

[peoriairish]

Did any officers get hit?

Not sure. They just took the cover off the boat and the suspect sat up... per the scanner.

Confirms he's still alive. No reports beyond that.

Rhode- go sit with Larry "it's a right wing extremist" O'donnell in the corner and let the rest of IEs investigate team take care of this one.

I don't even know what this means, but I never said anything about a right wing conspiracy, nor do I know the first thing about Lawrence O'Donnell.

I second that.

Ha. Who are you and where did you come from?

 

[peoriairish]

Half full 40 gallon tank on boat.

 

[peoriairish]

Flame or fire reported on boat.

Man you're good at setting up strawman.

 

[RuntheBall]

There are plans for an assault on the boat; another group doesn't want to assault plan on boat.

Apparently there is a fire on the boat.

Getting info from scanning radio:

MA Rt. 9 Window Cam on USTREAM: A live look outside my window. Other 24/7

 

[RuntheBall]

Flashbang going in. Officers told not to return fire.

 

[Rhode Irish]

I pray we get this guy alive so we can pry as much from him as possible, but I just don't see it happening. Eventually this guy will die like he deserves, but I hope it isn't today.

 

[irishpat183]

This is crazy....Dude is 19.

Imagine what's going through his head. Probably injured....surrounded by police...knowing you're going to die (either now or by execution later on)

 

[irishpat183]

Man you're good at setting up strawman.

And you're good at getting things wrong. Aren't you another "right wing extremist" tin foil hat folks?

We all have our talents.

 

[peoriairish]

Not a grenade, Wolff, flashbangs. Dummy.

Crazy. Time to put your hand down your pants for "one last caress."

LOL...horrible...but LOL.

 

[peoriairish]

The boat.

 

[Rhode Irish]

These standoffs are so strategic. If you just let him bleed out then investigating is so much harder. If you try to get him you're taking a huge risk that he doesn't have an operational bomb. Obviously they don't want to take that risk, which is understandable. But selfishly I want this ******* alive.

“@BostonGlobe: BREAKING NEWS: Police are still concerned that the suspect may be wearing a suicide bomb vest, the source tells the Globe.”

“@BostonGlobe: BREAKING NEWS: Police are using 'flash bangs' to disorient and distract the suspect. They have seen him sit up.”

It's cool bro, I've got this.

 

[irishpat183]

What about a tranq? Or non-leathal rounds?

At the risk of sounding like a total idiot (some on here would already say that)

Don't think there is anything to knock him out instantly without having the mear seconds it would take for him to set off an ied (if he is wearing one)

 

[peoriairish]

They are also worried about the boat being booby trapped so figuring out how to enter the boat is a hold up.

 

[irishpat183]

They're saying when he went back to the motherland last year....they trained him over six months as an explosives guy.

 

[goldandblue]

Ha. Who are you and where did you come from?

Been around here a long time bud.

 

[irishpat183]

Been around here a long time bud.

Straight up pulled seniority on his ***.....LOL

 

[irishpat183]

I can hear it now, Some wife in Watertown saying "I told you that boat was gonna be trouble"....
