Chaos in Watertown, MA - Cops Under Fire, Suspects Have Grenades [View all]

Last edited Fri Apr 19, 2013, 01:19 AM - Edit history (1)

From Boston scanner: http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/6254/web

Two "Middle Eastern men"...carjacking...heading to NY...one armed...one with slight facial hair...one has darker skin....about 5-7 and 5-9 tall.

"Shots fired from vehicle"

THEY HAVE EXPLOSIVES/GRENADES

UPDATE: If you are just tuning in there was a report of a carjacking by two Middle Eastern males about 30 minutes ago. From what I can gather they took off for NYC. Along the way they began shooting at cops and then started throwing grenades. They have been forced out of the car in Watertown, MA. Now they have placed "packages" around the area.

2 suspects in custody.

Apologies for typing Watertown, Connecticut. I was wrapped up in this and thought I heard CT.
