FBI releases photos of Boston suspects


The FBI has released photos of two suspects it wants to identify as part of the investigation into Monday's Boston Marathon bombings.CCTV captured the two men, one wearing a dark-coloured baseball cap and the other a white cap, near the scene.




FBI Agent Richard DesLauriers warned members of the public not to approach the two men.

Addressing a press conference in a Boston hotel on Thursday evening, Mr DesLauriers said of the two suspects: "We consider them to be armed and extremely dangerous."

He said footage showed the suspect in the white hat putting his backpack down at the site of the second explosion just in front of the Forum restaurant.

"We strongly encourage those who were at the Forum restaurant but haven't contacted us yet to do so," he said.

Mr DesLauriers said the FBI was aware of no additional threat.

At least one of the Boston bombs was made from a pressure cooker packed with explosives, nails and ball bearings, investigators have told US media. The devices were placed in black bags and left on the ground.

No need to beg anyone's pardon, my good Sir. Your observation that these two are Asians, South Asians to be precise, are much appreciated.

Do not hesitate to say anything candidly.

They could be anybody and need not be Asians of our region.

Nor the Mongoloid Asians for sure.
