FBI Releases Photos Of Two Boston Marathon Bombing Suspects
One of the suspects was a man wearing a white hat backwards and the other one was in a black hat wearing a coat and backpack. The images were taken near the finish line, which is where the explosions occurred. The bombings led to three deaths and more than 170 injuries.
"Today we are enlisting the public's help to identify the two suspects," said Richard DesLauriers, who is in charge of the F.B.I.'s Boston field office. "No one should attempt to apprehend these suspects, we are considering them armed and dangerous."

Earlier on Thursday, President Barack Obama flew to Boston and spoke at a service mourning the victims of the attacks at Boston's Cathedral of the Holy Cross. "Every one of us has been touched by this attack on your beloved city, every one of us stands with you," stated Obama. "The spirit of this city is undaunted, and the spirit of this country shall remained undimmed."
The FBI has asked the public for help and have posted the photos on FBI.gov. If anyone has any information on these two individuals, they should call 1-800-CALL-FBI prompt #3.
