Booms and countless shots fired, more booms and heavy police activity in Watertown, Mass., not far from MIT arrest scene. Now they are saying Boston Police, FBI and Homeland Security on the scene and all the crowd has been pushed back blocks. SWAT arriving, National Guard coming in. Everybody wondering if this is connected to Boston and/or MIT shooting. Choppers in the sky. Apparently a bomb or bombs were what went off when people heard the loud booms. They are saying more special operations from different towns being brought into this residential area. All the cable networks on live covering it. The Channel 7 reporter is saying he's never seen police so frantic as tonight. Police are all running in different directions with weapons out. So many police/unmarked cars that there is a traffic jam of official vehicles. Everybody is pushed so far back from the original scene that apparently something still ongoing. Others saying something "black" mentioned in code or code black or something and that usually means bomb. Reporter saying 100 - 150 official vehicles in the area of this small area, which looks urban - as if urban apartments and shops in the area.
