Three College Students Arrested in Connection with the Boston Marathon Bombing

Three college students have been arrested in connection with assisting one of the two suspects following the Boston Marathon bombings, according to law enforcement officials. The three were identified as friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, who has been charged with carrying out the bombings along with his brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26. The younger brother was a student at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth, the same school attended by the students at various points in recent months, according to authorities. Two federal law enforcement officials said the three disposed of material at a Boston area landfill at the request of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev following the bombing.

Two federal law enforcement officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing inquiry, said the three disposed of material at a Boston area landfill at the request of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev following the bombings. 

The Boston Police said Wednesday that they had arrested three suspects in connection with the bombing but did not identify them or provide further details.

Looks like Dzhokhar is rolling over.
