Doctors at a Boston hospital where a suspect in the marathon bombings was taken and later died, are saying they treated a man with a possible blast injury and multiple gunshot wounds. Doctors and officials at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center wouldn’t say if the patient they treated, who came in with police, was the suspect in the black hat from marathon surveillance footage.

The man died of multiple wounds, including injuries from a blast and gunshots, a doctor at the hospital where he was brought after a gunfight with police told reporters. “Multiple injures, a blast, gunshot wounds. He arrived here in (cardiac) arrest,” the doctor said.

A hospital official said: “We dont have any information on the identity of the deceased patient. It’s an adult male.”
