Boston's MIT issues campus alert after reports of gunshots

Found this link on the CTV site. Not much info there yet, as of the time I posted this. Have CNN on and they have said a police officer has been shot and that the FBI is already on the scene.

Geez. Is this crazies week or something?

The MIT police officer has died. It sounds like a carjacking gone wrong.

And now Boston Police are encountering grenades and other explosives...this is more than a carjacking.

This seems to be a separate event from MIT, occurring in Watertown, a Boston Suburb.

Well, I'm never going to Boston.

WBZ is thinking it must have something to do with the 2 suspects of the Boston Bombing...

If the reports of grenades and fully-automatic weapons are correct, it's either a gang leader or a terrorist cell.

You might be right..now they're saying this is related to the search for the MIT shooter

...and now the police think they might have found a pressure cooker...

Have CNN on right now. Live coverage. They just showed the suspect on the ground and everyone being ordered back away from him... There is talk about grenades, an explosion... holy crap.

Now CNN is reporting that one of the suspects in tonight's incident matches the description of one of the FBI's bombing suspects. Though "Skinny White Guy" describes approximately a third of New England.

2 suspects in custody now in Watertown. God... I hope there is a direct link to the bombings and that these are the 2 bastards they've been looking for.

I don't think the FBI would be involved if it were 'just a random car jacking go wrong'.

There MUST be a relation. GOOD!!!

What I don't get is why they stayed at campus (if they are the same persons). They had a few days to leave...
