(Before It's News)

Law enforcement authorities are reporting that they may have identified a possible suspect in the Boston Bombings using a video analysis supplied by a Lord & Taylor’s department store near the site of the bombing.

The critical details of the story have yet to be released but CNN’s John King is reporting that the FBI will be holding a news briefing shortly.

UPDATE: THE FBI HAS JUST RELEASED PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF THE SUSPECTS WHICH CAN BE VIEWED HERE.

CNN is withholding a detailed description of the suspect at the moment, stopping at describing the suspect only as a “dark-skinned individual” because other details are sensitive to investigation.

Additional video footage supplied from a TV station is also said to have helped in making a clear identification of the suspect according to CNN.

The Lord and Taylor’s department store is located at 760 Boylston Street in Boston and located across the street from the location of the second bombing.

According to reports, the video clearly shows the dark-skinned manned placing a back pack believe to contain a bomb in the exact place the second explosion took place.  

Authorities stated that after enhancing the video they were able to make a positive identification of the suspect in question.

There are no answers at this time whether the attacks are domestic or foreign related.

In related news, the FBI has leaked some photos of the evidence they have collected at the crime scene.

Boston Marathon bomb scene pictures taken by investigators show the remains of an explosive device. The photos were produced by the Joint Terrorism Task Force of Boston and provided to Reuters on April 16 by a U.S. government official who declined to be identified.

  • What exactly are the “hallmarks of domestic terrorism?” FBI training? DHS instigation?
    The only “domestic terrorism” is that which the government creates.
