Federal law enforcement officials searched a landfill in New Bedford, Mass. in connection to the Boston bombing suspects this week, according to the Boston Globe.
The officials said the search has been going on for at least two days this week. The Crapo Hill landfill is several miles from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth where Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was a sophomore. Students saw him on campus after the bombings.
In his UMass dorm room, the FBI said in court papers that they recovered a “large pyrotechnic,’’ a white baseball hat and black jacket similar to the one Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in was allegedly wearing when two bombs were detonated at the Boston Marathon April 15, killing three and wounding more than 200.
