At 8:44 PM on Friday April 19th, four days after the bombing in the Boston Marathon, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, also known now as “Suspect #2” was found in a boat in the backyard of 67 Franklin Street in Watertown Ma. He was taken into custody, bringing a twenty-eight hour standoff to an end.
News release from the Boston Police stated, “We took the suspect into custody alive. We’re bringing up an ambulance to transport him. He is believed to have suffered a gunshot wound and lost blood. It is unclear how weakened he was.”
Suspect 2 is alleged to be one of two men responsible for the killing of three people and wounding more than 140 people. Twenty eight hours before his capture, his brother, Suspect #2, was killed in a wild shootout. The task to gather information from this newly captured suspect now begins.
