The Boston bombing


FBI identifies suspects in Boston Marathon bombing

The FBI has released images and video of its two suspects in the Boston Marathon attack, who the agent in charge said should be considered "armed and extremely dangerous." The agency's website crashed following the press conference.

The FBI agent in charge of the investigation Richard Deslaurius, said the images showed the suspects walking together towards the finish line.

The FBI added that the public will be the investigation’s “eyes and ears” and will “play a critical role in helping identify the two individuals.”

The two men are the FBI’s “sole interest” at this point, Deslaurius said.

Images of the two men were available on the FBI’s website, which went down immediately following the conference.

The FBI says suspect No. 2, wearing a white baseball hat, planted his backpack on the street, after which an explosion detonated “within minutes.”

“As you can see, the quality of the photographs is quite good, but we will continue to work on developing additional images,” Deslaurius said, before warning the public to disregard any images not released by the FBI.
