Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were the two suspects named by the FBI in the Boston Marathon bombing attack and after leading police in a chase and shootout, one was left dead while the other is still at large while authorities search Watertown for information.

The two brothers were first found on Thursday night after robbing a convenience store and then stole a Mercedes truck, which police eventually found. The suspects shot an officer at MIT and later made their way into Watertown, where a police shootout ensued and possible explosions occurred. One brother was killed in the shootout and may have had a bomb device on him.

The slain brother was a former boxer and the other suspect was loose in Watertown on Friday as authorities began speaking to family members and friends about possible motives and how the two carried out the attack. Explosions and gun shots were reported in Watertown throughout the night and many residents witnessed what happened.

More information is slowly coming out about the suspects, including through social media and other channels as authorities try to figure out how and why the two did it. The marathon bomb left three dead and the boys' uncle denounced what they did in an interview and police are still searching the city. Boston was put on lockdown and all transportation was suspended as people were warned to stay home.
