執(zhí)法官員報告了波士頓馬拉松賽爆炸案的調(diào)查進展,這起爆炸案造成至少3人死亡,170余人受傷。爆炸現(xiàn)場的錄像成為關(guān)鍵線索,警方已鎖定了嫌疑人。但是,據(jù)NPR新聞的湯姆·吉杰爾登報道,聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局表示目前并沒有逮捕任何案件相關(guān)人員。
A senior law enforcement official tells NPR that video of the spot warns at least one of the bombs _3_, shows a man setting down a bag and then leaving the scene. But the official says that there is not necessary mean that the man is the suspect. We need more than that, the official says.Early press reports say a man _4_ and was even been taken to the federal court house in Boston, but the FBI is knocking no reports down on hard.In the statement, the FBI said "contrast to widespread reporting, no arrests have been made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack."Over the past days there have been a number of press reports based on information from unofficial sources that have been inaccurate, the bureau said.

一名高級執(zhí)法官員接受NPR新聞的采訪時表示,案發(fā)現(xiàn)場的監(jiān)控錄像表明,至少一枚炸彈爆炸前,一名男子放下一個背包之后離開案發(fā)現(xiàn)場。但是官員表示,并不是說這名男子就是嫌疑犯。官員表示,我們需要更多線索。早前有媒體報道,一名男子已被逮捕,并已被送往波士頓聯(lián)邦法庭,但是聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局否認(rèn)了這一說法。聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局發(fā)表聲明表示,“與大量報道相反,目前并沒有逮捕任何波士頓馬拉松賽襲擊案的相關(guān)人員。”聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局表示,過去這幾天,大量媒體依據(jù)非官方信息源進行的報道均不屬實。NPR新聞,湯姆·吉杰爾登華盛頓報道。

Both of the letters were intercepted before they _5_ their targets. White House spokesman Jay Carney says the FBI is conducting further tests to confirm the initial readings that the letters contained the poison ricin.
這兩封信都在送達之前被截獲。白宮發(fā)言人杰伊·卡尼表示,聯(lián)邦調(diào)查局正在進行進一步的檢測,初步檢測結(jié)果表明信件中含有蓖麻毒素。
"I would underscore that the mail is screened , the mail sent here screened and these tests undertaken at remote sites to mitigate the risk both to those recipients and to the general population."
