Breaking: Three more suspects in Boston bombing in custody

[dbackjon]

Authorities have arrested three additional suspects in connection to the Boston Marathon bombings, the Boston Police Department confirmed to Yahoo News Tuesday.

A spokeswoman at the department directed all questions related to the suspects to the FBI, which has yet to disclose their identities. Local news station WBZ reports that they will be brought to a federal courthouse in Boston this afternoon to face charges of aiding the suspect after the fact.

NBC's Pete Williams reported that the suspects are friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's from the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth. The three have been under FBI surveillance for 10 days, and are suspected of aiding Tsarnaev after he allegedly committed his crimes. Two have been in custody on immigration charges related to their student visas, while a third, a U.S. citizen, was arrested today.

I'm not shocked. I still think it was way too sophisticated for these two guys to do on their own.
