The Massachusetts college student wanted in the Boston Marathon bombing
was captured wounded, but alive after hiding out in a boat parked in a
backyard on Friday evening.
The arrest of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev signaled the end of five days of terror
set-off by the double bombing at the marathon finish line killing three
people and wounding more than 180.
His older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, lay dead in a furious 24-hour
drama that transfixed the nation and paralyzed the Boston area with
fear.
Relieved law enforcement officers began cheering and clapping after
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, was arrested and is now in a serious condition at
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and is reported to have lost a great deal of blood.
Boston police commissioner Ed Davis was celebratory in his tone as he
took to Twitter to say, 'It’s a proud day to be a Boston police officer.
Thank you all.'
Police cornered the younger Tsarnaev around 7 p.m., less than an hour
after police lifted a stay-indoors order for the city and its suburbs.
A resident in his 60s, believed to be called David Hanneberry,
reportedly went outside to smoke and saw the tarpaulin cover of his boat
was disturbed off the top.
