For those who followed the MIT shooting/Watertown gunfight closely on Twitter, police scanners, and local livestreams with us tonight, you’ll recall that a man was captured, told to strip (for fear of having explosives on his body) and taken away in a police car. We showed you these live-tweets at the time:
