Friend just told me the scanners are saying that the two guys they've just apprehended are middle eastern. You guys hear anything like that?

I'll wait till things become more concrete before I start throwing theories on this, but the picture is starting to become a lot clearer to me now.

One of the guys they've got cuffed, from what I heard, has an Arkansas-issued saltwater fishing license.

I'd put the odds of him being Middle Eastern as pretty low.

"One white, two... middle-eastern"

It doesn't sound like any were the specific person they're looking for, though.

Given that Louisiana's southern border is the Gulf of Mexico... yes?

DDOS?
Distributed Denial of Service. Basically hammering a web site so hard the server crashes. Hackers use botnets to do this all the time against places like Amazon, Microsoft, etc.

As of right now, it seems to be "confirmed" that the two suspects are a pair of Chechan brothers, with the dead suspect being a Dzhokhar A Tsarnaev.

Dzhokhar is the one who's still alive, I thought.

Edit: AP reporting that the suspects are brothers.

Ah alright so one still out, gotcha. Who was it they nabbed from that car then? Just being cautious? Or a third suspicious person?
