Report: Suspect in Boston Marathon bombings in custody; a Saudi National

Looks like there is a suspect in the Boston marathon bombings and at least one report has identified a suspect who shared the same nationality as the vast majority of the 9/11 hijackers.

Via NY Post:

Investigators have a suspect — a Saudi Arabian national — in the horrific Boston Marathon bombings, The Post has learned.

Law enforcement sources said the 20-year-old suspect was under guard at an undisclosed Boston hospital.

Fox News reported that the suspect suffered severe burns.

It was not immediately clear why the man was hospitalized and whether he was injured in the attack or in his apprehension.

The man was caught less than two hours after the 2:50 p.m. bombing on the finish line of the race, in the heart of Boston.

We await news on the suspect’s name and / or number of accomplices.
