Sounds like the suspect is on a boat, and they're moving in. They've just gone to radio silence except for essential comms, but you can listen to those essential comms live, as somebody's put a scanner on a live stream: MA Rt. 9 Window Cam on USTREAM: A live look outside my window. Other 24/7

I suspect that, with there being so many agencies involved, they had to use open channels because of equipment incompatibilities; or perhaps they just don't have encryption for local police forces. At one point when a senior police officer needed to speak to the senior FBI guy at the scene, he had to ask him to call him on his mobile.
The scanner stream missed the first few seconds, but here's the police commissioner thanking the troops, and them responding: http://www.nickfitz.co.uk/media/Bost...4-20-02-00.mp3Comment

Some islamist web site was saying this shows the weakness of the Western world, that they're able to cause an entire city to shut down. I think it shows the strength of the Western world and the rule of law - and as a result of it we can afford to shut down an entire city to catch a criminal.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

These Chechnyans were branded as "freedom fighters" by the US who granted them asylum. They have been monitored by the CIA and FBI. I think there is a moral somewhere."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment
