The Blaze article said this happened Monday night. No further news, so I would discount the report.

Officer down, shot by his own gun (which was taken from him).
Suspect was fleeing from a robbery.

Well, the Blaze article has been completely updated and changed from my earlier post, so obviously I should completely revise my conclusion too!

I wake up early in the morning to go to the bathroom and check the TV and OMG they are showing a you tube video of a shoot out with the bombing suspect.

So much for guns staying out of this.
One bomber at large, one dead.
Unfortunately one police officer is dead.

I am sure the residents of Watertown, MA can answer the question: "Why does anyone
need an AR-15 and 30 round
clip".

They have the name of the 2nd suspect now and #1 and #2 were Brothers and have been in the USA for 1+ year.
Suspect #2 is 19 year old Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev.
It has not been reported yet.....but this tells me that this is the work of what we know as a "Sleeper Cell". If I am correct, this proves the existence of "Sleeper Cells" within the US and could see more of this type of activity.
