54. MIT cop Sean Collier was shot execution-style because terrorists ‘needed a gun’

Mon Apr 29, 2013, 04:06 PM

Apr 2013

Investigators have revealed that the Boston terrorists, brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, originally from Chechnya, only had one real gun and one pellet gun. Because Collier’s holster had a locking system they couldn’t get the gun out. Collier was shot at point-blank range in the head as he sat in his patrol car.

One of the first responders to these shots fired at MIT was Richard D Donohue JR, who had attended Police Academy with Collier. He was shot later on Thursday evening during a shootout with the Tsarnaev brothers in Watertown. Tamerlan was killed in the shootout but his teenage brother was not apprehended until Friday evening. He remains in hospital.

...

The 27-year-old enjoyed mountain climbing, training young boxers and playing kickball on a team called Kickhopopotamus. According to the Daily Mail, Collier had been a volunteer at the boxing gym where Tamerlan was a member and is believed to have helped with his training.

So Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Sean Collier knew each othe from the gym.

Sean Collier and Richard Donohue went to Police Academy together. Donohue was shot and almost killed, possibly by "friendly fire".
