'There's a Body in the Boat': Interview with Boat Owner Who Found Marathon Bombing Suspect


Dave Henneberry waves off talk of him being a hero.

"I'm an incidental hero," Henneberry said. "I wasn't out on the prowl, I was out to see my boat and I stumbled across this thing."

"It makes me feel wonderful ... but it's only a boat. There are people who have lost lives and limbs. I'd rather the money goes to the One Fund Boston."

After all, he said, "I've got a canoe in the garage."
