Tsaraev charged. Read the complaint here.

Late Update: Seems Tsarnaev’s wounds may have been somewhat more extensive than other reports suggest. The complaint said “apparent gunshot wounds to the head, neck, legs, and hand.”

“The man pointed a firearm at the [carjacking] victim and stated, ‘Did you hear about the Boston explosion?’ and ‘I did that.’ The man removed the magazine from his gun and showed the victim that it had a bullet in it, and then reinserted the magazine. The man then stated, ‘I am serious.'”

The complaint suggests that the carjacking victim escaped rather than being freed.
