Fox 25 Boston ^ | April 18th, 2013 | Staff

Posted on 04/18/2013 1:57:07 PM PDT by Third Person

A high-ranking federal law enforcement official confirmed a photo of what is believed to be the second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings.

The official told FOX 25 the man in the white hat will be identified as suspect #2 at a 5 p.m. press conference Thursday.

The picture also shows what appears to be a backpack on the ground matching the description of the bag used in the bombings.

The official tells FOX 25 another image of a first suspect will also be released at the conference.

Anyone with information on the marathon bombing suspect is asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI (225-5324) and choose prompt 3. Tips can also be e-mailed to boston@ic.fbi.gov.

Yea, I'd noticed the same thing - though it might just be the angle to the camera or that #1 is using both straps and therefore better supported. If you slow-mo the FBI video as #1 rounds the corner, I think you can see by his body movement that there is some weight there. Here are a couple more out-takes:

Sorry, I can't recall at which site the black bag was found right now, I'd have to do some searching.

But here is the bag image (dues to FOX):



I think the flagged site is the finish therefore first blow. I recall FBI said they have video of suspect #2 (white cap) dropping his bag but again I'm not sure which site.

veracious (there is quite a time delay between me posting and posts actually showing up, apologies if this is out-of-date), but here is quote from FBI conference today:
"Suspect 1 is wearing a black hat.
Suspect 2 is wearing a white hat.
Suspect 2 set down a back pack at the site of the second explosion just in front of the Forum Restaurant."

Therefore black bag must be explosion 1 (closest to finish) line.

There was a picture of explosion 2 that showed something very similar to the fragment shown on FOX, and I have arrowed it below. However, this is where the FBI say suspect 2 dropped his pack (which appears to have been the lighter colour bag). NBB this fragment seems to have been removed fairly quickly and does not appear in later shots. Of course, it might be something else and it might belong to one of the victims not the bombers.

tahoeblue - I think the video is shot at the corner of Gloucester Street and Boylston Street i.e. the suspects have not yet reached either site 2 or site 1.

They’re also walking quite briskly considering they’re carrying what, at least 20-30 pounds?

How many American guys do we know that dress for going out like that one suspect and then adds a washed-out looking neck scarf around his neck?

That Radical. It still seems to suggest that they walked all of the way to the first site. #2 apparently is seen dropping his bag there (which is a light colored bag in the video). He must have taken the bag from #1 and reversed course to site two, set off bomb 1, dropped black bag which was carried by #1 in the video, and continued upstream to the runners while setting off the second bomb.

Has the tattered clothes runner guy been identified or caught yet?

Was this the guy who was talking with the Saudi high school kid that was dressed in blue. the Saudi/blue kid was cleared.

. . . I guess the logo on the black cap is most likely to be an embroidered “B” for Boston?

Maybe, although that certainly doesn't look like a typical Boston Red Sox hat. Unless it's a new style...

(I'm a Boston Red Sox fan... I've seen lots of Red Sox hat styles over the years)
