    Ya, just saw on CNN they said they robbed the convenience store. And that they dropped off the carjacked driver at a gas station.

    They did show a security camera photo of the 19 year old.

    That was a very strong press conference by the uncle of the bombers.

    I could have sworn in this thread there was an official tweet saying that they did indeed stop by the 7/11, but that it was robbed later and not by them? If I'm wrong, sorry. This is just all too much info. coming.

    I still think the guy bled out and is laying dead somewhere, I hope not though. I wanna know wtf they did this for.

    Not to go all toycen, but I wouldn't be shocked if he is captured and they're putting on a show to find accomplises. If they had him captured but kept it quiet they could torture him, him, and report him dead.

    Which was my point. People jumping the gun saying they got him when 2-3 times it has been routine checks of people just walking around. As for other areas of the city. The feed I am listening to has had very little traffic other than from the search and things related to it.

    Not trying to put words in people's mouths but this is one instance some anti torture people might be willing to look the other way...
