Investigators may have made a break with the Boston Marathon case. After twin explosions detonated near the finish line of the Boston Marathon this Monday, killing 3 and injuring countless more, investigators have been focusing incredible attention over every detail on the scene. After all, it was a popular site with cameras video-taping everywhere. This is a lot of material to review. So far, it appears we have two men holding black backpacks near the site of the bombs. Investigators do not know who they are and have not arrested them, but the pictures and videos, which are included in this video we have linked, are the first solid lead we have on an otherwise inexplicable parade of violence.
Investigators are reviewing frame by frame every video they can to see if we can identify who laid the bombs, which were crude inventions, explosives mixed with nails and ball bearings put into pressure cookers and set on the bombsite in black backpacks.
The video of the men, who are being called “prime suspects,” matches descriptions of of eyewitnesses who reported somebody leaving the scene.
“I know it’s very active and very fluid right now – that they are on the chase,” said City Council President Stephen Murphy to The Associated Press. “They may be on the verge of arresting someone, and that’s good.”
The city, meanwhile, has been crawling with investigators who are exploring the city for any and every shred of evidence, inspecting trash and discarded waste, and lending an ominous presence to the Boston. Dressed in white jumpsuits, they have made residents a little uneasy, and constantly reminded them of the recent trauma from last Monday. Some people have admitted that they feel a little nervous being in public now.
