Officials now claim that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was unarmed as he hid in boat in Watertown
Contradicts Boston Police Commissioner's account of hour-long firefight with Tsarnaev
New York Times said M4 rifle had been found on boat
Police sources suggested Tsarnaev shot himself onboard


Two unnamed U.S. officials have told the Associated Press that the surviving suspect in the Boston bombings was unarmed when police captured him hiding inside a boat in a neighborhood back yard. The report contradicts the Boston police department's own account of Dzhokar Tsarnaev's capture on Friday - after commissioner Ed Davies described a firefight between him and officers before the terror suspect was captured. The New York Times also said an M4 rifle had been found on the boat - another claim contradicted by the latest revelations. Officers had originally said they had exchanged gunfire with Tsarnaev for more than one hour Friday evening before they were able to subdue him. But on Wednesday, the law enforcement officials told the AP that no gun was found aboard the vessel.

In a society that worships lies and war, its awful hard for officials to keep their stories straight.

there were immediate reports that shots were fired from the boat, but either way he was presumed armed and dangerous at that point anyway, and he was presumed to have weapons which they had seen him using against them less than 24 hours prior...






An arsenal of weapons including at least six bombs, handguns and a rifle were found at the scene of the Watertown shootout between police ...

...the shootout, during which an estimated 200 shots were fired in a 5-to-10-minute period and one of the brothers threw a pressure cooker bomb at the officers.

Wasn't it Biden that quote an anonymus source for one of this tirades. It must be rubbing off on others.

You have to remember that these "US Officials" are most likely doing as they are told by their superior's superior... "make sure this Muslim isn't made to look bad".

I trust the guys on the ground in the middle of the firefight.

It's all moot though, because after murdering a few and attempting to murder a hundred... I have no problem with them firing at him even if he had a white flag in his hand.

Pretty much.

Although, it wouldn't be surprising. Most people probably wouldn't care either based on what he did, (I'm not one of them).
