Massachusetts State Police released five photos on their Twitter account on Saturday afternoon showing marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev hiding in a boat in Watertown on Friday evening, shortly before his capture.

The photos were taken from the State Police Air Wing, including images using a thermal imaging camera which show the suspect within the boat.

The man who owned the boat that Dzhokar used to hide from police was getting some fresh air when he noticed that his boat had been disturbed.
