At 7 p.m. EST, WCVB is reporting that rapid gunfire (“a couple dozen” shots) and several “massive” explosions have been heard in Watertown, as officers surround a boat in a backyard that reportedly contained a bleeding person. All indications are that this is Boston Bomber Suspect 2, 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

The address is 67 Franklin Street.

There was previously scanner chatter about using “gas.”

Large SWAT vehicles, presumably filled with personnel, have arrived. Live television reports say the suspect is moving, and snipers are dialed in.

It’s believed that Suspect 2 was injured during the previous night’s firefight with police and has been operating in a wounded state since cops last saw him, when he drove a car over his bullet-riddled brother to escape police.
