After Boston's horrible bombing occurred, the two suspects that had caused the scene have been found. Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who is twenty-six years old, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who is nineteen years old, came from a family who had ran away to escape the Caucasus region in Russia. Tamerlan was training for a boxing competition that could have had him in the U.S. Olympic team and a citizenship for the United States. However, as much as he wanted to become a citizen of the United States and as hard as he worked to get there, he had no American friends whatsoever or even acted or spent his free time the same way they did, setting himself different from others. Tamerlan's wishes for being in the U.S. Olympic team was cut short as the police killed him on Friday. His brother, Dzhokhar, was taken into custody that same night. Family members of the brothers are shocked at the news. They find it hard to believe that their own relatives would do such a thing and be the cause of three people dying and having over 170 people injured. When his uncle was recently asked why he thought they did the bombing, he said, "Being losers, hatred to those who were able to settle themselves - these are the only reasons I can imagine." Their family believes that the whole bombing was set up, as it is unexpected for it to come from these two brothers, who loved the United States.
