To leave the building ...in a sensitive area.

Makes total sense. If these suspects actually have Tactical vests that say FBI on it, it is the most logical way for them to escape police.

I heard that too...

The last I've understood is

"the fbi have authorised you to stop the car"

"he has stepped out of the car in a tac vest and had a exchange with the other car"

Willing to bet SOMEONE will complain and try and file suit.

Never know...someone has a relatively harmless bag of weed, and now faces jail time because their home was illegally searched? Yeah, I think they'd have something to say about it....

"Suspects"

What does this mean? Are these his friends? Family members? Why is there more than one suspect now?

What's the deal with the no-fly zone? To conceal police activity, or are they concerned about something else?

Just my speculation.

Clear the air for the choppers and drones.

Those helping him

So they are not sure if these dudes with tac vest's are feds or perps. Bad communication to a degree. I can understand but still bad.

Do they have warrants to search all these homes? I mean, I'm sure most citizens are simply allowing it, but I'm just wondering here.

If they want to clear a house just to check it off the list, they will ask.

If they have probable cause that a armed and dangerous subject is in a building, or are in pursuit they don't need a warrant to enter ANY building.

Wrong she actually appreciated my honesty..And you have obviously never met her because she was more than just out there were are talking a woman who committed physical and emotional abuse against her children & grandchildren starting when she was a lot younger and everyone kept their mouth.I felt it was time for the truth.. I'm sorry but some people do not deserve respect especially those who commit crimes against children and she was one..

You may have saved a nurse from getting stabbed with a fork. Sometimes the truth isn't fun to say, but it's the best policy.

I doubt the police care about that right now.

According to Sgt. there was a domestic disturbance at the address in 2009 where the SWAT is getting ready to move to in Watertown.

Today is not the day to go play airsoft or paintball.

Yeah.....no way this guy is a lone wolf at this stage. With every law enforcement agency in the state, plus the feds, hunting this dude down, plus the whole city of Boston prepared to help send him to Allah, this guy has to be getting help, especially if explosives continue to be involved.

This is just insane. Normally, situations like this end within a few hours, involving the suspect cornered and holed up somewhere, either surrendering, or dead. When they are alone, that is....

Terror group/cell involvement seems almost a guarantee at this stage, this kid has training of some sort.

There has imo been more than the two suspects for quite sometime.

Ie. the comment that was told to reporters by the cop saying "if you knew what we knew you wouldn't be standing here" Who knows if that was true anyway.

Yeah, wonder what counts as probably cause.

I'd imagine it's pretty easy to get permission from homeowners and judges alike at this point... They might have already had judges sign blank search warrants at this point.
