Wow. So someone taken into custody matched a description over the radios. But then some kid came up and said he was just some random kid with a backpack on. WTF.

If anyone doesn't follow Seth Mnookin on twitter this would be a good time to start. He's there, live-tweeting.

If these are the guys, where is the FBI? That is my only question.

Well, not only. But....

Yeah, they said at the time that someone was saying it was his friend and they just arrested him because he had a backpack. Makes sense. These guys are shooting cops and armed to the teeth with bombs and ****. Arrest anyone that worries you as long as you let them go when you find out they're clean.

I had it muted and didn't know it was on. Was it video sent in from earlier?

Some guy that had an eyewitness account on his iPhone. He sent in the video and they played it. Couldn't see much, but sound was crystal clear. About 25 shots fired outside the kids front porch on the street. Cops screaming asking each other if they have shotguns ready.
