Boston Bombing Suspect Shootout Pictures

Posted by Andrew Kitzenberg on April 22, 2013

On Thursday night [Friday morning] at 12:45am EST.  I was in my living room working on my computer when I heard multiple “pops” coming from outside.  At that point, I had no idea that I was about to become an eye witness to the biggest news story in the country.

 

When I looked outside my window, I could clearly see two people (the Tsarnaev brothers) taking cover behind an SUV and engaging in gunfire. After witnessing shots being fired I promptly ran up the stairs to my 3rd floor bedroom to distance myself a little further away from the gunfire. As I ran into my room, overwhelmed by shock, adrenaline, and curiosity, I jumped onto my bed to stay below the windows but also have a clear view at the shooters and photograph the event. As soon as I was laying safely on my bed I started taking pictures with my iPhone 5 and captured the following images that documented the terrifying shootout with the Tsarnaev brothers, which then led to an overnight citywide manhunt.

 

Here are the two brothers taking cover behind the black Mercedes SUV and shooting towards Watertown Police officers. (Taken at 12:46:11AM)

 

The shooters were also driving the green sedan on the left. They had the back passenger door open and were going back into the car where they had additional supplies (assumingly, more ammunition and explosives). They also had backpacks at their feet where they also had additional supplies.

 

 

This is a view from the west-facing window in my bedroom and at the end of the block (Laurel St.) you can see multiple police vehicles. These vehicles were about 75-80 yards from the shooters. (Taken at 12:46:25AM)

Amazing series of photos that really tell the story. Thanks for this interesting thread, smoothsailing!

FRiends... if you followed the capture / killing of the Boston bombers in Watertown on that long night last week, you'll want to be sure to see these photos (with commentary by the photographer):

The accused Marathon bombers wore expensive clothes and drove brand-new Porsches, Range Rovers and Mercedes

Very interesting article... thanks for that Boston Herald link in #29, amom.

So they drove brand-new high end cars like the ones listed above and "wore expensive clothes"? O'Reilly said earlier tonight that "the brothers' family was on Welfare, etc."

What's going on? Did these terrorist brothers work somewhere? If so, what did they do?

Who has been funding these guys, so they could afford this luxurious lifestyle??

Good questions there.

I have conflicting information about the oldest brother which I need to sort out. The younger was a full time student as far as I know. This is the first I'm hearing of the family being on welfare. Mom and Dad are living with the two sisters in Russia. Wonder who in the family O'Reilly was talking about as being on welfare?

A bit about the older brother here.

I would have sent one heavy round through each of their heads.

The 1st shot would be silent to the target and the next, I’d still have the element of surprise and blamo!

Back and the right, Back and to the right, game over.

(sister) Ailina Tsarnaev said she has not had contact with either of her brothers in years. Her husband, who also appeared to speak to reporters, said he has never met his wife’s family as they do not approve of the fact that he is not a Muslim.

Then all the CT freaks would accuse you of being a government assassin paid to silence the perps.

Yes, I saw that thanks to your info.

A lot of 'information' has been flying around and much of it, while stated as fact has turned out to be otherwise. Been quite 'interesting' to weed through. I know it's typical but never seen it quite so brazen.

They were often at one of the sisters houses up to a couple years ago from things I have read here. They probably dropped by occasionally since, at least the younger one.

Remember they took a computer from her house.

Soh? I'd get at least get the Congressional Medal of Honor and free beer on Saint Patrick's Day
 
Changed my mind.  Even though my M1A is my go to weapon of choice, I'd be content with grabbing the shotgun, in 12ga or 8ga, and letting go with these little babies.
 
They look like they might actually hurt for a second or two....if you survived the hit.
 
Probably not.  No one in my family misses much and I've offense/defense training under my belt as well as being high stress situations as a Sheriff Explorer.
 
Add Paintballing and plenty of skeet shooting and it's not a good outcome for this bastuhds.
 
Breath slowly through the nose.
 
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

No, you'd probably get 20 years in prison in Massachusetts.
