Gotta try to get suspect #1 out alive. So we can have answers. But at some point you just expect him to go down shooting or to kill himself.

That latest pic looks like an artist sketch....I mean, I knew security cams were pretty bad but c'mon! Definitely looks like one of the bombers.

report on scanner of male walking around with backpack. If that's an innocent civilian, not a good time to be outside with a backpack.

Wouldn't he have had to have had this backpack on the whole time. Not like he could have gone and made a bomb while running from police.

don't think he was killed from explosive, just one found on his person.
