NY Times is reporting:
"The two shooters, he said, had a large and unwieldy bomb. “They lit it, still in the middle of the gunfire, and threw it. But it went 20 yards at most.” It exploded, he said, and one of the two men ran towards the gathered police officers. He was tackled, but it was not clear if he was shot, Mr. Kitzenberg said.

The other, he said, got back into the SUV, turned it towards officers and “put the pedal to the metal.” The car “went right through the cops, broke right through and continued west.”

The two men left “a few backpacks right by the car, and there is a bomb robot out there now.” Police had told residents to stay away from their windows, he said. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/20/us/explosives-detonated-in-massachusetts-standoff.html?_r=0

It sure doesn’t sound like run of the mill carjackers.

If this report is accurate, it would be amazing if these are NOT the Marathon bombers.
