Conflicting Info on Bombing Suspect Shuts Down Boston Courthouse
What a mess
A federal courthouse in Boston has been evacuated amid conflicting reports that a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing is in custody.
Attorney Francis DiMento says he was in a hearing when someone came over the loudspeaker and announced a "code red" and told everyone to get out in a hurry.
Crowds of reporters are gathered outside. The FBI and the U.S. attorney's office in Boston say no arrests have been made.
