When was tamerlan tsarnaev shot

Testifying after Reynolds, MacLellan said he joined the firefight while driving toward the gunmen to create a diversion. The officers recalled seeing a second suspect, whom authorities later identified as Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. The brothers began throwing bombs. The first ones seemed relatively small, like fireworks, MacLellan said. Reynolds and MacLellan took cover near a house. Then they saw the second suspect throw a much larger bomb, the size and shape of a cooking pot.

My ears were ringing. I could hear all the car alarms going off," Reynolds said. MacLellan added: "My eyes were shaking violently in my head. I couldn't see straight. I was afraid I was going to get killed. In one of the houses on the block, James Floyd was awakened by the gunfire.

He testified Monday that he grabbed his infant son and fled to the back with his wife, away from the street. He heard people screaming. He peeked out the second floor window and saw the suspects shooting and lighting fuses. He saw the big bomb explode, followed by a "blinding light.

Next door, Andrew Kitzenberg was working and watching a hockey game when the gunfire erupted. He testified that he ran to his third-floor window and saw the suspects moving back and forth between the Mercedes SUV and the Honda Civic, pulling things out of backpacks. He took photos, which the jury examined. Reynolds did a three-point turn and began following the Tsarnaevs. But Reynolds never got the chance to turn on his blue lights.

The Tsarnaevs got out of their cars and bullets started pinging off his cruiser. He kept the car in drive but jumped out and let it keep rolling. The diversion worked: Tamerlan fired repeatedly at the empty police car, wasting precious bullets. Reynolds and MacLellan took cover behind a tree and returned fire as the Tsarnaevs threw bombs at them. The first pipe bomb was so weak that MacLellan thought it was fireworks.

Then Dzhokhar pulled out a pressure cooker bomb, like the one they had used to kill and maim at the Marathon. With great effort, Dzhokhar hurled that bomb down Laurel Street. That explosion was thunderous. District Court clerk told ABC News that the documents had been "inadvertently unsealed" prematurely and had since been placed back under seal. Tsarnaev was found hiding in a boat on April 19 in Watertown, Mass. Additional gunshots were heard after police discovered Tsarnaev's hiding place.

Recently released photos from the time of his capture show the man surrendering, his face and hands covered in blood and a rifle's laser sight trained on his forehead. He has pleaded not guilty to 30 charges related to the bombing, though his defense team admitted during opening statements that he participated in the attack. We'll notify you here with news about.
