Suspect Picked Up Car From Mechanic Day After Bombing

Gilberto Junior, a mechanic in Cambridge, Mass., speaks to reporters on April 19, 2013 about his encounter with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.

Eric Lach April 19, 2013, 1:36 PM 20260 CAMBRIDGE, MA — A Somerville, Mass., auto mechanic told reporters on Friday that the younger of the two brothers suspected of carrying out the Boston Marathon bombing came to his shop on Tuesday, the day after the bombing, and asked to pick up a car he had dropped off for repairs about two weeks before.

Gilberto Junior, 44, said that the man, who has been identified as Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, appeared to be “very nervous.”

“He was biting his fingernails, and was shaky,”
Junior said.

Tsarnaev had dropped off the car, which Junior described as a white Mercedes wagon, at the auto shop about two weeks earlier. It had rear bumper damage, and Tsarnaev had said it was his girlfriend’s. On Tuesday, when Tsarnaev suddenly returned, Junior told him the car wasn’t ready.

“I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care, I need the car right now,” Tsarnaev said,
according to Junior.

The mechanic said Tsarnaev took the car without its rear bumper on.

Junior said he had known the two brothers for about two years. His shop, Junior’s Auto Body, is not far from the Norfolk Street apartment in Cambridge that law enforcement searched on Friday. The brothers and their friends — between six and eight of them, Junior said — would bring their cars to the shop for work.

“I talked to them all the time, about cars, and about soccer,” Junior said.

Junior said he had seen the pictures of the suspects on Thursday, but he wasn’t sure it was the young men he knew until Friday morning. With the FBI searching the apartment so close to his shop, Junior went over and told the FBI what he knew. Asked what he had thought of the brothers, Junior said he thought they were “nice” kids. Then he added: “You know, not nice kids now.”

The left still runs to his defense. “Teen” “had a hard time adjusting here” “minority”

After more than 200 rounds were traded over several minutes, some officers were out of ammunition and charged the brothers' position with their police car. The vehicle was disabled by gunfire from the Mercedes.

I find this odd. I have it on the best authority Barack Hussein Obama (the famous Nobel Prize and Grammy Award winning skeet shooting smartest man ever to occupy our White House) that no one needs more than seven rounds. Why would police need more rounds than that, so many rounds that they actually ran out of ammunition? Apparently, people like me are just not as smart as our ruling class leaders, so we think there is an error or a contradiction somewhere, but that is why our leaders should have the absolute power that they are acquiring.
