Watch: Boston celebrates after bombing suspect captured

Celebrations in Boston included fireworks after Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured Friday night.

Watertown residents who had been told Friday morning to stay inside behind locked doors poured out of their homes and lined the streets to cheer police vehicles as they rolled away from the scene.

Celebratory bells rang from a church tower. Teenagers waved American flags. Drivers honked. Every time an emergency vehicle went by, people cheered loudly.

“They finally caught the jerk,” said nurse Cindy Boyle. “It was scary. It was tense.”
