    WHDH live stream from Boston. One suspect (looks white) laying on the ground on his stomach but the cops are backing away from him.

    I thought it was a body too. But they seemed to indicate he wasn't dead.

    Pretty sure that guy is still alive. At least the WHDH anchors seem to think he is.

    Other suspect possibly at large; conflicting reports. Also possible reports of other unexploded pipe bombs. Helicopters now on scene.

    If he had said a guy wearing his hat angled appeared to be a gang member, we'd be hearing the cries about it being a racist slur.
