From another board....
NBC and CNN have reported that the 2 suspects (1 dead in a shootout, another still on the run) are Chechnyian Nationals.
CNN TV reported obvious facts about Islamic Fundamentalism & Terrorism ties in Chechnya and possibly that is also behind these attacks, as at least one of these brothers had some type of military training back in Chechnya.
Their family emigrated to the US from Chechnya thru Kazakhstan and had been in the US for at least 2 years as one of them was studying to be an Engineer at Bunker Hill Community College.
CNN Analyst mentioned how these 2 brothers could have self-radicalized here in the US as one of the brothers recently posted on social media how he didn't have 1 American friend.
Its a fluid situation for sure...but hopefully the police can capture suspect #2...dead or alive.
Sadly, one of these terrorist shot and killed a MIT police officer last night.
