Hear the 911 Tape of the Man Who Found the Boston Marathon Bomber in His Boat

Print More

Most know the story of how a Watertown resident spotted something strange with his boat that sat in yard and it ended up being the wounded Boston Marathon Bomber. 

The discovery of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in the boat on Franklin Street ended a day-long search, during most of which the town was under lockdown.

ABC News acquired the 911 tapes of Watertown resident David Henneberry reporting what he saw in his boat. The video is part of the ABC Ditigal five-part series about the events of April 2013 from the bombing to the capture. The 911 tape is part of the fifth segment that chronicles the lockdown and capture of Tsarnaev.

The fourth segment covers the Watertown Shootout, and includes interviews with Watertown Police Sgts. Jeffrey Pugliese and John MacLellan.

Some of the videos include up close and graphic images of the bombings. See the story and videos by clicking here. See the fifth segment with the 911 call by clicking here (the 911 tape starts at the 5:09 mark of the 11:28 long piece).
