Boston bombing: 3 more suspects in custody
Boston Police arrested three more suspects today for the Boston Marathon bombing, according the the AP.
“Three additional suspects taken into custody in Marathon bombing case. Details to follow,” announced Boston Police Department said on Twitter, and added later: “Please be advised there is no threat to the public.”
Two of the suspects are college students from Kazakhstan, and friends of initial suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, arrested on April 19th.
The two have been held in jail for more than a week on allegations that they violated their student visas while attending the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
NBC reported the suspects are accused of helping Tsarnaev gather his belongings from his campus accommodation and may have attempted to mislead authorities.
Boston Bombing Victim Reunited With Hero
This video from CNN news features heralded British journalist Piers Morgan interviewing Tyler Dodd, a man who rescued a girl who was injured as a result of the Boston marathon bombing.
Victoria, the injured girl, had put out a public appeal to seek out her rescuer. She didn’t know his name or anything about him, only that he shielded her, supported her, and helped her in her time of need. Dodd got word of Victoria’s inquiry and went to visit her at her bedside in the hospital.
In the interview, the two discuss the moment when the two finally encountered after she had searched so long for him. Dodd describes the moment as “one of the most amazing spiritual moments of his life.” He recalled being at a loss for words when he saw her, and that there was an immediate unspoken bond between the two. Dodd’s tone in the interview was that of a genuine, pure happiness and gratitude of what had unfolded in the hospital room. The interview was done marvelously and Piers Morgan knows how to handle an interview and how to control the conversation.
FBI investigators are still struggling to find the culprits behind the Boston bombing. Now there were pictures taking of a very peculiar looking bomb that goes by the name of a “pressure cooker.” The picture and directions on how a person could make one was published in an online magazine by Al Qaeda.
This video is from the CBS Website. Even though there is no sound to it, I found this video very interesting and I thought I would share it with you today.
