New photos show marathon bomb suspect’s surrender

BOSTON (AP) — More photos showing the Boston Marathon bombing suspect’s surrender have been released.

The images made public today were among those given to Boston Magazine last month by a state police officer.

Sgt. Sean Murphy took photos the April night police cornered Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in a dry-docked boat in Watertown, just outside Boston. He wasn’t authorized to release them. He says he was angry about a Rolling Stone magazine cover he felt glamorized Tsarnaev.

The new photos include more shots of Tsarnaev coming out of the boat, his head bloody and a red light trained on his head. They also show him on the ground being attended to by medical personnel.

Tsarnaev has pleaded not guilty to charges in the April 15 marathon bombing, which killed three people and injured more than 260 others.
