"We Got Him!"
Wounded fugitive marathon 'bomber' captured after he was found
hiding in a BOAT in backyard of Boston home.

Cops use flash-bang grenades to flush him out.

Police captured Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, on Friday night after a day-long manhunt using helicopters and heavily armed officers in a Boston suburb.

Apprehended 'covered in blood and hiding in a covered boat in Watertown by homeowner who ventured out after curfew was lifted'.

He and law enforcement officers engaged in a furious exchange of gun-fire that began shortly after 7pm.

Over 30 rounds were fired in the exchange - as terrified residents of Franklin Street were evacuated by police.

The stand-off continued until approximately 8.45 p.m. when Boston police announced on Twitter that Tsarnaev had been apprehended.

Tsarnaev reportedly surrendered himself to police having been shot twice.

He was rushed to Beth IsraelDeaconess Medical Center where many marathon victims are being treated.

He was said to be 'clinging to life' this morning.

His Miranda rights have been revoked and he is being treated as an exception due to national security.

Residents were warned to stay indoors amid gunfire, flash-bang explosions and tear gas.

On his arrest - jubilant crowds took to the streets of Boston to thank police, FBI and law enforcement officials - chanting 'USA!'.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, killed after explosions and machine gun fire on Thursday night.

Both suspects are brothers from the Russia region near Chechnya and had lived in U.S. since 2002.
