I was about 2 blocks from the boat they found djokhar hiding in in Watertown. I was forced out of my apartment at gunpoint. This was after I’d tried to see what the streets looked like and was told “GET THE FUCK INSIDE.” I could hear the commotion, flashbangs, when they found him. Spent most of a night listening to police radio to get an idea what was happening outside.
Shit was surreal.
I also worked at a national landmark, and was thus on a ‘need to know basis’ making minimum wage but also being briefed by feds about not disrupting/how to identify the feds. “Anyone here with a dog today is almost definitely FBI, don’t disrupt them.”
