    Green Honda SEDAN, not a civic.

    Manhunt makes for better TV.

    this is like an episode of 24. although they'd need to rename is 96, or 120.
    jack bauer, fox, and the republicans would've had this sorted out ages ago, and have the twist 12 hours in all settled too!

    They're STILL talking about the pallet and the ladder on Mt Auburn street

    Isn't sedan just the American word for a saloon car. Civic sedan rather than a hatchback?

    UPDATE: Boston Police are asking social media users not to post information they hear on police frequencies/scanner channels.

    I think a Sedan is a type of car - i.e. saloon car over here.

    Sounded like they have a cell phone contact for the suspect


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 451 ✭✭bhamsteve


    I think they have phone contact with him, according to police feed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,842 ✭✭✭Rob A. Bank


    He could have been wounded earlier and just crawled into a hole somwhere and passed out/died perhaps?

    Possibly... 17 hours since the shootout in Watertown and he is still at large.

    My guess is that he is hideing in the sewers or long gone far away from Boston somehow.

    I read that in an Alan Partridge voice.

    Try an Arnold J Rimmer voice:D

    Yup. :(

    Would it be harsh to say the Police really botched this one?

    They have a shootout with 2 suspects. One is shot, the other gets in the car, literally drives over his brother and evades police. How? Surely they had backup in the form of dozens of squad cars yet this guy has managed to escape and evade them for over 14 hours.

    I wouldn't mind if they had him cornered but he's literally slipped them.

    As much as I am worried about the suspect getting updates VIA twitter, he's defo not on boards, so post away. And if he is, he has to post about his day, it'd be a legendary thread in no time.

    They are right though, he has to be tired now and wrecked emotionally , the guy saw his brother die , thats gotta hit him hard. Thing is will he rest or will he just go out in a blaze of glory or suicide by cop
    Aww.. the poor little lamb. Maybe the US is approaching this the wrong way around altogether, a counsellor is all the loveable little rascal needs.

    Was thinking the same thing earlier,he could have got out of the area while they were getting into place on lockdown,hard to know really.

    There's some Saving Private Ryan-esque activity.

    They're telling people to find troopers who have been on since 0900

    I thought that too, but i think they have seen him/chased him.. I have no idea how he keeps getting away if they have.
    I though they chased him into a housing estate, and into a house.
    Then i thought they were looking for a Grey Honda CRV (Which he got into while they were outside the house) and drove away.
    They chased the Honda, found it empty with Bullets on the ground beside it.
    Then they saw two guys, one was the suspect.
    Now he's in a Green Honda Civic?

    McGyver would be proud.

    I think the Nike bad publicity baton just got passed to Honda.....

    You can't really say that they messed it up.. if it's true that not only was there a shootout, but there were explosions also thrown, then its understandable that they had to keep their distance.
