After long investigations by the FBI, the suspects of the Boston bombings have been found. They are two brothers, Dzokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev. According to their uncle, Ruslan Tsarni, the two boys were born in Kyrgyzstan and later moved to Cambridge Massachusetts. They are from Chechan ethnicity which is a small region in southern Russia right by the region of Dagestan. Dzokhar Tsaraev graduated from high school and earned a $2,500 scholarship from the city of Cambridge to go to college. He was already going to med school and his friends and family were surprised that he would do such a thing.  Tamerlan, being the older brother, was killed in a shooting with the police on Thursday night in Watertown Massachusetts. The younger nineteen year old brother, Dzokhar is still on the run and police are spread all over the state of Massachusetts to find him. He is the suspect who was wearing a white baseball cap in the surveillance cameras where the bombings took place. All houses in Watertown have been searched by the police in order to find any clues to where Dzokhar can be found. The police notified the residents to call the FBI if they spot the suspect anywhere.
