"So Something happened"
I am inclined to agree. At this point, even a hoax would be newsworthy, but there is nothing. It looks like a blackout surrounding a critical operation.
this apparently happened around 12 midnight, and the reports went out over Boston Pd and Mass State Police...
they are still have trouble with crowds in some neighborhoods
well if this happened at night. And these guys were seen coming down they should have been dead before they hit the ground.
