Bắt sống kẻ đánh bom tại Boston

20/04/2013
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev - nghi phạm thứ 2 trong vụ đánh bom tại cuộc thi marathon Boston đã bị cảnh sát bắt sống ở sân sau của một ngôi nhà tại Watertown.

Cảnh sát đã nhìn thấy kẻ tình nghi ngồi dậy và đang tìm cách làm người này mất chú ý. Lực lượng cảnh sát đang hành động rất thận trọng vì họ lo ngại rằng kẻ tình nghi có thể vẫn mang áo cài bom.

Nguồn tin cho biết cảnh sát phát hiện ra kẻ tình nghi đang di chuyển khi họ quan sát từ máy bay trực thăng của Cảnh sát Tiểu bang.

Diễn biến mới nhất xảy ra chỉ vài phút sau khi nhà chức trách thông báo rằng kẻ tình nghi đã bỏ lại xe hơi và chạy bộ lẩn trốn.

'We got him!': Boston bombing suspect captured alive

By Pete Williams, Richard Esposito, Michael Isikoff and Tracy Connor, NBC News

The Boston Marathon bombing suspect was captured alive but wounded Friday night — after holing up in a boat in a suburban backyard following a bloody rampage that left a cop dead and a daylong manhunt that shut down the city.

The arrest of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, and the earlier death of his brother during a firefight with cops, ended five days of terror sowed by the double bombing at the marathon finish line, which killed three people, wounded 176 and left the city of Boston on edge.

"We got him," Boston Mayor Tom Menino tweeted.

"CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won," the Boston Police Department said on its Twitter account.

Cops cheered as the suspect was taken into custody in Watertown, Mass., just before 9 p.m. Later, the people of Watertown flooded the streets, cheering every passing police car and armored vehicle in an impromptu parade. Chants of "USA! USA!" broke out. In Boston, people danced in the streets outside Fenway Park.

Police cornered Tsarnaev -- a naturalized U.S. citizen of Chechen origin -- around 7 p.m., less than an hour after police lifted a stay-indoors order for the city and its suburbs.

A resident had gone outside to smoke** and noticed a tarp on the boat was flapping, a relative told NBC News. When he went to investigate, he saw what looked like a curled-up person and bloody clothes.

The man "freaked out," ran into the house and called police, the relative said.

Thermal imaging from helicopters confirmed there was a person in the boat, officials said.

Over the course of two hours, several bursts of gunfire could be heard. The police exchanged fire with Tsarnaev, threw flash-bang grenades designed to disorient him and brought a negotiator to the scene as night fell, officials said.

Just before 9 p.m., the wounded Tsarnaev was taken into custody. "He sustained significant blood loss," a law enforcement official at the scene said.

As an ambulance took the suspect to Boston Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital — where he was in serious condition — people lining the streets applauded in joy and relief.

“We are so grateful to be here right now, so grateful to able to bring justice and closure to this case,” Massachusetts State Police Col. Timothy Alben said at a briefing. “We’re exhausted, folks, but we have a victory here.”

President Barack Obama praised the outcomes but said many questions remained. Among them, he said: “Why did young men who grew up and studied here as part of our communities and our country resort to such violence?”

Authorities are also not sure of a motive or whether the suspects had help. Even as the standoff took place in Watertown, the FBI was taking three people in for questioning in New Bedford, Mass., who were believed to be former roommates of Tsarnaev.

"No one was detained. No one was arrested," a spokesman with the Massachusetts FBI office later said, once the two men and one woman questioned in connection with Tsarnaev were released.

But the president declared: “Whatever hateful agenda drove these men to such heinous acts will not, cannot, prevail. Whatever they thought they could achieve, they’ve already failed.”

Tsarnaev will be questioned by a federal team called the High Value Detainee Interrogation Group, which includes officials of the FBI, CIA, and Defense Department, an Obama administration official said.

His apprehension capped a manhunt that had the city of Boston and its suburbs on total lockdown after the execution of a college campus patrol officer, a carjacking and the death of Tsarnaev's 26-year-old brother, Tamerlan, during a 200-bullet confrontation with cops.

The overnight violence had triggered an extraordinary shutdown of transportation, schools and businesses in Boston and its suburbs, with police warning more than a million people to hunker down behind locked doors while SWAT teams fanned out and bomb squads collected seven homemade explosive devices.

The brothers' bloody last stand began about five hours after the FBI released surveillance photos of two "extremely dangerous" men suspected of planting two bombs near the finish line of Monday's Boston Marathon, killing three and wounding 176.

Stepson of man who found suspect in boat: 'He didn't try to be a hero'

Eun Kyung KimTODAY

David Henneberry just wanted some fresh air when he and his wife stepped outside their Watertown, Mass., home after an intense day of being locked down. Instead, he got a boatload of shock.

Henneberry noticed the tarp on his 20-foot boat flapping in the wind, an odd sight since the craft had been tightly wrapped up for the winter.

He took a closer look and noticed blood on the tarp and one of its tension straps intentionally cut, said his stepson, Bob Duffy. Then Henneberry made the discovery that broke open the manhunt for the Boston Marathon bombing suspect.

“He saw something hunched down toward the forward of the boat, and his mind instantly did the right thing,” Duffy told Lester Holt Saturday on TODAY. “He didn’t try to be a hero, he didn’t yell.”

Instead, he ran inside his home and called the police.

Within minutes, authorities moved Henneberry and his wife to a neighbor's home and seized his boat, where they used thermal imaging and discovered Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

After the shootout, they took the injured 19-year-old bombing suspect into custody. "He sustained significant blood loss," a law enforcement official at the scene said. As an ambulance took the suspect to Boston Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital — where he was in serious condition — people lining the streets applauded in joy and relief.

Duffy said he had no idea what was going on at his mother's house until a friend told him.

“I got a phone call from a friend, ‘Doesn’t your mom live on Franklin Street?’ I turned around to the television and literally, there’s a satellite image of the house,” he said. “I was horrified.”

Duffy said when his stepfather had called police, he hadn't realized the gravity of his discovery, mainly because he couldn't get a good view of what was inside his boat.

"One and one hadn't made two at that point," he said.

But tactical teams had been patrolling the streets all day, all without realizing what may have been within their reach.

"They had been through the neighborhood all day long, multiple times. They had no idea," Duffy said.

“Nghi can có bị một vết thương, bị chảy máu, có lẽ là do bắn nhau với cảnh sát đêm hôm trước, và được đưa vào bệnh viện,”
