Over 38,000 listeners on that police scanner right now.

Now over 40,000.

Now saying "devices" present, telling everyone to power down their cells. So automatics, grenades, IEDs? Bomb disposal unit is there.

Why this isn't the front page of the news I don't know. This is chaos.

There are a lot of people on Twitter (including several journalists and meteorologists that I follow) that are blasting them for not having this covered yet.

from atlantic wire:

Not long after midnight, there were reports of a car jacking at a gas station on Memorial Drive. The suspects took a Mercedes SUV. Minutes later there were shots fired in Watertown. Then an officer said "they have explosives and grenades." After the exchange of fire, police scanners reported an officer down. The chase continued and there were reports of automatic gunfire and explosives being thrown out of a car. Minutes later police took one suspect in custody and the other fled. Police then set up a perimeter and as many as 50 officers searched for the suspect in Watertown near Mount Auburn Street and Lloyd Road.
