This guy lives right where the bombers were standing as they were shooting at the cops.

This first picture is of them standing behind their car, shooting up the street towards the cops. I'll make you click to see the rest of the pictures, because the guy deserves the traffic.

No mention of the older brother being run over. His story seems to indicate that the younger brother got away in the SUV, not on foot as was widely reported.

several good photos and a complete timeline at this article:

One witness to the guy getting ran over I posted youtube video here:

Wide open and exposed in the street and nobody had any weapons? I know this is a liberal masshole but still. That's a perfect vantage point for my sks.

That begs another question, if a civilian were to have dropped both of these guys from their 2nd story window with a rifle or something what would the repercussions be to that individual?

The site I linked to references the brother getting run over. I did not hear any reports of the younger brother escaping on foot - only that he drove through a police barricade.

I'm sure that individual would be charged with murder.

That's kind of what I thought too. I think that in most states, that person would be hailed as a hero, but in Boston...who knows?

I wonder why the guy did a u-turn to escape. Is that street a dead end?

[limequat]

Laurel st does not dead end in any direction.

Our narrator is looking westward from point A

Was there another police barricade to the east that we don't know about?

Why just stop on Laurel street and have a shoot out? Did both cars simultaneously run out of gas?

Right next to Arsenal st. Ironic.

Allegedly.

[ClydeCoulter]

The pictures (at link in OP) don't show up for me, not even the little squares with an x in them.

[ClydeCoulter]

They really should have turned the headlights off, instead of standing in front of them. Kind of bad for hiding ones self behind the front of a vehicle.

[limequat]

I saw them earlier today and now I can't see them either. Maybe already taken down. Try the link in the second post. Same pictures, you'll just have to spice in the narration mentally.

[limequat]

So this is the alleged location of the naked man?

[Aratus]

Right next to Arsenal st. Ironic.

in the 1800s there was an arsenal in Watertown on the northern bank of the Charles River.
go a bit further and you are at the mall which is near the historic site. it was one of the supply
areas during the Civil War, and part of the war effort. the boat was just over the town line.

UPDATE 3:20PM 4/23/2013: I have decided to take down the photos during the ongoing investigation.

Ongoing investigation??

seems it was already concluded. :(


I saw the pictures,, but could not identify who was in the photos.
For all I know it was another theatrical display, or staged training exercise.

Fark has a thread going on the shootout pictures.

One comment was;

"If he'd had a rifle instead of an iPhone, he could have ended it right then and there."



And if he had the right rifle and some patience he could have possibly severely surprised both of them at the same time.

They are back up now.

Yesterday I found them re-hosted with a Google search but never made it back here. If they go down again there was a bunch of sites that had them.

Thanks for the notice :)

It is a pretty good timeline and story of the shoot out.

I think in the fark thread someone posted a picture showing what looked like the police kneeling and handcuffing the one guy as the other speeds towards him in the sports utility vehicle. It is pretty grainy. Still it seems to settle the most likely one to have ran him over. I heard the police say they barely got out of the way in time.

The farker mentions a gallery of pictures. It must be linked on Andrew Kitzenberg's website.

Oops never mind. The picture is there in the regular link. I just missed it before.

Point 1) I cannot identify the individuals who are standing in front of the SUV. So it only proves that two people were standing in front of an SUV, one of which appeared to be in a shooting stance, but I can't even clearly identify a gun. I'll go ahead and assume there was shooting occuring, giving that it's unlikely someone would just be standing in that position. Which brings me to point two...

Even if it were completely clear that the two individuals were the brothers in question, that doesn't prove they were involved in the bombing.

What would YOU do if your pictures were all over the news claiming you had been involved in something like that, and it had suddenly become obvious you were being set up for such a horrible crime?

I don't know what I would do, but I think there are plenty of people who would say screw it and fight for their lives.

To the people saying a civilian could have shot them out of a window. If I saw a shootout between a person and LEO's I wouldn't automatically assume that the person was the bad guy in the situation.

[muh_roads]

Am I the only one who can't make out jack shit from this? I see a quarrel with no identifiable faces.

[Carson]

P.S. The pictures are pretty grainy. If I had a dollar for every pixel in those pictures I'd have 75 cents. :D (Stolen from here. #11)

that's a small picture sqrt(75)

[sailingaway]

Thanks. I was following this guy on twitter, and posted a bunch of these pictures in the thread that night, I didn't see the one with the black suv and the guy on the ground and I couldn't recreate it after the fact from all the conflicting reports of what happened.

[anaconda]

Why would the older brother run towards the police?

[anaconda]

How can anyone identify the brothers from these photos? I can't make anything out from the grainy, far away photos.

[Carson]

Why would the older brother run towards the police?

I sort of picture it seemed like a good idea with the smoke cloud blocking the view from police. They may have thought one running and firing as a diversion would give the other a chance to turn the car around and make a run at the road block. I didn't look to see if it was a dead end street. When you look at the pictures from down at the other end. (Which confuse me as to where they came from) it looks like some pretty tight driving to mash your way through the cars. I suppose from the SUV angle the mist may have just been clearing as he came upon the fleeing policemen with his brother and had the lights in his eyes and obstacles to drive his way through drawing his attention.

But then that is all conjecture (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/conjecture).

There is a new thread on Fark with a new article linked.

i'm with you on this...my instinct would not be to agree with a pigs judgement
