I suppose if Obama was going to declare him an enemy combatant and ship him off to Gitmo it might not be technically termed an “arrest”.

Fat chance of that though.

Leave it to the media to screw up pretty much everything their hands touch.

Yep. The best info came out early on from the local law enforcement. It is the internet and social media sleuths who don't want to be Benghazied who have been doing all the work.

Update - there are many conflicting reports. It’s possible that:

A. A suspect has been identified

B. A suspect is in custody

C. A suspect has been arrested

D. None of the above

Some of the news agencies (AP, Fox, etc.) are still claiming an arrest has been made. Dept of Homeland Security and Boston PD are saying no arrest has been made. If the latter, that doesn’t eliminate A or B above. Will update when there’s more info

“”””That claim is pure trollish drivel.”””””

That is from an individual named “anonymous” and its posted on the internet. What makes you think its not true?

All local stations here in Boston are reporting no arrest but there are about a hundred people outside the federal court house waiting for the guy to be brought in. There’s supposed to be a presser here @5pm and we were told they would release the name at that time.

Thanks for that info, rockabyebaby.

The Saudi suspect was a non-issue after Kerry met with some Saudi big wig in a closed-to-the-press meeting yesterday. But we’re not supposed to figure that out since we all just fell off the turnip truck.

The bad news for the radical left A.K.A “the left” is that he appears not to be a white Tea Party Activist like they were Praying to their Messiah to deliver. The Good News is that some liberal university just identified the newest member of the faculty.

Yes. I saw that too.

But it may be that the initial arrest be on “unrelated” charges, like cell phone theft or overstaying an expired student visa.

BTTT!! Bingo..this sounds like a massive intelligence failure! The guy and his cell are probably getting on a plane right now or escaping. thanks federal leakers and media shills!!

This is what happens when you let the Muslim Brotherhood into positions of power in our intelligence and administration apparatus.

ABC news interrupted Rush's broadcast where they said that an arrest is imminent. Then they said an arrest may or may not be imminent. They must be careful not to jump to conclusions(LMFAO). No doubt the Boston Marathon perp is not the ethnicity the State Run Media and the White Hut were hoping for.....So now, ABC changed to the story of the envelopes full of whatever being sent to congresscritters.



Now Rush is back on........Superb reporting I must say /s

A few more details are posted at this news source.

It still sounds cryptic to me, like the government is trying to spin their story. Color me skeptical.

the exit has been disguised as a power button. Push and hold until the screen goes blank.

I don’t agree with all the posts here. But I do have the option of skipping them.

Boston PD says NO ARREST but there will still be a presser @5pm. The crowd is getting bigger at the court house.

Makes sense that the perp would be on his cellphone as detonation occurs, although no one knew if timer was used or not. Tracing cell traffic during detonation time, well.. The perp can’t hide from that. Idiotic to use a cellphone bomb. Stupid.

The parts strewn on the street were from RC radios, not cell phone radios.
