This is pretty bad ass. I didn't even know they had scanners streaming online. Nice.

That feed was put up by someone because of this incident. It wasn't there when I made this thread. Boston Police was assisting as well.

I'm just saying if you want to listen to the live incident traffic, it's on the Cambridge broadcast. Not that they are saying much ...

Update: the officer was pronounced dead at the hospital. Shortly after mayhem broke loose in Watertown and it is not clear if these two events were related.


What sounded like a loud explosion went off in Watertown near the Arsenal Mall and there was a shoot out with police. Bomb squad is down there now. The noise of the explosion (could have been a bomb) was said to be loud enough to wake up everyone in the area.

They apprehended one man but there is still one on the loose.


Also, unrelated to this: the Dunkin Donuts in Cleveland Circle was searched by the National Guard yesterday and has been closed ever since.

What is going on! These are the two areas I'm in everyday and **** is getting real.

On radio, can hear sirens, man screaming Move Back. Much noise and confusion. Arrest of one suspect in Watertown.
Boston Globe confirms shooting and killing officer and it is connected to the marathon bombing. Many policemen searching for ? Searching everywhere, searching dumpsters. High police activity.

(I had the radio on while i was asleep, this woke me up.)

My prayers for the officer, his family, loved ones.

What a week....
