Bomber 'put gun in his mouth and fired as he was cornered in boat'
2013-04-21
The alleged Boston Marathon bomber may have tried to kill himself rather than surrender after he was cornered by police - but failed in his suicide attempt, it has been revealed.

A new report says Dzhokhar Tsarnaev shoved his pistol in his own mouth and pulled the trigger as SWAT officers and federal agents closed in on the boat where he was hiding in Friday night. However, instead of killing him, the bullet simply passed through his neck.
Dumbass. Next time point it up.
Authorities have said they cannot question him because of a throat wound. He remains in 'very serious' condition at a Boston hospital.

Boston Mayor Tom Menino revealed on Sunday that federal agents may never be able to interview Tsarnaev. Menino didn't elaborate on his comment and it is unknown whether the gunshot also caused brain damage.

The new twist in the story of Tsarnaev's dramatic capture comes as the Boston police commissioner warns that he and his brother Tamerlan were plotting more bomb attacks on the city and they were caught just in time. Authorities insisted that the pair were working alone.

Ed Davis said the bombers were flushed out of hiding when the FBI released close-up surveillance video of their faces and asked for the public's help in tracking them down.

#6  Authorities can't question him because of the throat injury? Excuse me, but Tsarnaev is not illiterate. Use a chalkboard or text message the f*er.

#3  They did not make the bombs. They were only the delivery boys.

#2  So where did they make the bombs? Storage units can be rented for a few bucks a month, and they are all over country. Amateur bomb factories and meth labs have this in common.

Bombs were said to be found in their apartment, but not according to this article:

There is no trace of any bomb making equipment or ingredients, not a trace. So where did they make the bombs?
