While the motive behind the twin bombings at the Boston Marathon is yet to be known, the lone surviving suspect in the deadly attack was unable to talk yet as he injured his throat in an apparent suicide bid.
Dzhokar Tsarnaev “suffered an injury to his throat and may not be able to talk”, senior US officials said. Authorities have not publicly detailed the injuries sustained by Tsarnaev, but an unnamed official who has been briefed said the 19-year-old has been “intubated and sedated.”
Tsarnaev may have tried to commit suicide before he was apprehended, CBS News reported. He suffered at least two bullet wounds — including one to his neck — before he was arrested in Watertown. The bullet wound to the neck “is very possibly a suicide attempt,” the report said.
