Homeland Security reportedly on the scene already.

Listening to police scanner. Two people in custody, but one of them is not officially considered a suspect yet.

One suspect in custody. Not sure about the other.

 

MIT and Harvard are only a mile to mile and 1/2 from the Boston Marathon Bombing.

Watertown is a couple of miles down from MIT and Harvard.
