Three college students have been arrested in connection with the Boston Marathon bombings, a Boston police source said this morning.
The Boston police official Twitter account said that three additional “suspects” had been taken into custody.
The source said the three had been arrested by federal authorities.
Police said in the tweet that further details would follow.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is facing federal charges of using a weapon of mass destruction and malicious destruction of property resulting in death in the twin bombings that struck near the Marathon finish line on April 15.
His brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was killed in a confrontation with police several days afterward as the two tried to flee the area. Police say they were trying to subdue him when his brother ran him over in a desperate escape.
Authorities say the two also killed an MIT police officer as they tried to escape. No charges have been filed yet in that case.
No cell to find! They did act alone and not that well, if they knew what they where doing there would be more than just 3 dead and 200 injured.
Sources told CBS News senior correspondent John Miller that investigators arrested three suspects for harboring or aiding the Tsarnaev brothers after the fact.
These will be federal charges, announced later.

This undated photo added on April 18, 2013 to the VK page of Dias Kadyrbayev shows, from left, Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev, from Kazakhstan, with Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in Times Square in New York. Kadyrbayev and Tazhayakov, two college buddies of Tsarnaev, were jailed by immigration authorities the day after Tsarnaev's capture. They are not suspects, but are being held for violating their student visas by not regularly attending classes, Kadyrbayevs lawyer
BOSTON -- Two college friends of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev who were jailed by immigration authorities the day after his capture had nothing to do with the deadly attack and had seen no hints that he harbored any violent thoughts or terrorist sympathies, a lawyer for one of them said Friday.
Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev, who are from Kazakhstan, were classmates with Tsarnaev at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. They appeared alongside him in a recent photograph of a group of young men visiting New York City's Times Square. They were detained April 20 after being questioned in connection with the bombing, which had killed three people and injured more than 260 others a few days earlier.

That could be true. Anyone know the possibility that these roommates knew about the attacks ahead of time? Is it possible they completely missed that their roomies were moving around explosives and pressure cookers?
