Ak /*. >> well, if they are fired by law enforcement, you can bet they were accurate. they could have been going anywhere. >> police scanner is ordering that the media move back. >> i dont know why were not hearing from the police. i guess theyre busy. but i would like to know more. clint, it seems to me were not getting reports on all this. we are trying to get it from the pictures we are getting and tweets. thats not a great way to put together an entire situation at all. >> what the police wa...

The power that they have and the distance that they can do to cause damage, that makes sense. steve cooper was talking about the fact that they could see the suspect still moving and seemingly alive. he said they were using some nonleth nonlethal shots which i think everyone wants to hear that hes apprehended. some experts will say a guy like this wont be taken alive. maybe people will want more answers and first of all feel him off the streets but maybe to get some answers. >> were back again. ...

Teams i assume as a precaution to make sure that the situation is indeed over but we dont have an identity on the body. we dont know who it is. we dont know whether the body is a result of the shooting. that would seem to be the logical conclusion, though. >> yeah, pete. right where they are in watertown, the charles river takes a kind of dramatic dip to the south. it does widen there but to your point, youre absolutely right. a lot of people have boats on trailers in their yards, not quite the ...
