Photos of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, are the two men believed responsible for Monday’s Boston marathon bombing. As previously reported Tamerlan Tsarnaev perished in a shootout with police in Watertown, Mass while his younger brother Dzhokar is still on the run. A manhunt for Dzhokar is currently underway.
So far details on the two men of Chechen origin are skimpy, what we do know however is that Tamerlan and Dzhokar were both athletes and legal residents of the U.S.
Before his death Friday, Tamerlan Tsarnev was an trophy winning competitive boxer who was named New England’s Golden Gloves heavyweight champion in 2010. He is believed to have studied at Bunker Hill Community College.
His younger brother Dzhokar was a wrestler, one whom one of his classmates described as “bright” and social.
While this story continues developing, we’ve rounded up photos of both the Tsarnaevs. See up close photos of the Boston bombing terrorists below. -danielle canada
