BOSTON — Hundreds of thousands of people across the Boston region woke up Friday morning to a surreal scene of terror on their television screens: an immense manhunt was under way in their normally tranquil neighborhoods for the lone surviving suspect of the marathon bombings.
[Times]

Bonuses include: A Wild West-style shootout; the storied marathon; a night of high drama and chaos; accounts impossible to verify; a fraught situation; and what people could see if they could only look outdoors, which was difficult, because "with people locked in their homes, they had a limited vantage, seeing only what they could glimpse out of parted curtains."
