MSNBC on Wednesday showed images of a man dressed in black clothes, tattered from the bombing at the Boston Marathon, running from the blast site.

“The Daily Rundown” host Chuck Todd asked NBC News’ Michael Isikoff whether this person is being considered a new suspect in the investigation or if he is potentially the Saudi man police questioned about the attack. 

“Not clear if that’s the case, but there’s no indication that this individual is a suspect,” Isikoff said. “He, like a lot of other people, were fleeing the scene where there were two very horrific explosions.” Isikoff added that the Saudi man who had been questioned about the bombing has been cleared as a suspect. “So I wouldn’t read too much into that picture,” he said.
