Already seeing speculation that the shooter might be connected to the Boston Marathon bombing.

Well, people get shot every minute of every day, so no.

A few miles away. Chatter that this could be related to the Boston marathon bombings.

Not sure if this matters, but the Boston police feed is going crazy. Something about explosives and shots fired.  Suspects apparently stole  a police car.  Very odd. Second officer down.

http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/6254/web The police feed.

Nothing on CNN at least. Crazy.

Officers now being ordered to retreat. Possible suspect injured.

Apparently they're proceeding as if these guys are the Marathon suspects. There's two of them and one just got run over.

And still nothing on CNN or Fox. God, don't they even have an intern who monitors these things?
