Currently living in Massachusetts in the Town where Suspect 2 (white cap) attends college (college is approximately 5 miles from my home) and though the manhunt was taking place in Watertown, located 50 miles north, I felt a certain amount of apprehension. This was further elevated by the fact that the University was evacuated and 3 individuals in neighboring New Bedford was taken away for questioning.
I sat glued to the TV and as the day passed into early evening and the suspect was still not apprehended I felt less and less safe and secure, as I wondered could this suspect be returning to the University to seek shelter or worst plan further attacks. Was there a faction of co-conspirators at the University that would assist him?
My point is that this sort of thing does NOT happen in the USA nonetheless in my neighborhood....!!! I felt less safe and vulnerable and wondered how could this Suspect avoid capture with the amount of Police looking for him.
Boy....did I feel a sense of tremendous relief when he was captured and this nightmare was finally over. Kudos to the law enforcement agencies who participated in the capture of these individuals.
I now hope we will learn why they committed these senseless acts.

Good to hear from someone who had a very close connection to this tragedy.
Do you expect that the Federal Government will step in and try the second suspect?
