sincere. >> the fbi says it knows who purchased the guns used in the attack but they are not under arrest. back to you. >> and once again we are seeing some parallels between the attacks in california and what we experienced here with the boston bombings. >> in both cases you are dealing with family members that took others. it looks like it with the wife who was first to radicalize and may have later brought her husband along with her. in both cases you have suspects who traveled abroad. we are hearing something similar happened with him during one of his visits to see his then fiance when she was there.

net played a big role in encouraging the terrorists. the pipe bombs are almost identical to the brother's pipe bombs. finally in both situations you have a pair of attackers who apparently put a lot of thought into their initial act but then stayed nearby choosing to build more -- build more bombs. >> stay with us and cbs for the latest developments. now to the breaking news in boston. the bomb squad forced to debt death -- detonate a suspicious package. beth is live in boston. beth? >> well it was quick work by police.

actually going to detonate everything it makes you appreciate -- the security we do have. >> police say there were no explosives in the case. homeland security cameras captured the image of a man placing it near the vehicle and then walking away. that called for an immediate police response. >> what bothers us is the behavior and why he played it next to a homeland security vehicle and then her hered a heres away -- hered away >> such stuff going on in this world right now. definitely -- we don't need it. >> so in the end police say it was all a hoax but it was better to be safe than sorry with their response. so far we have new kales -- details of the arrest. back to you. now at 6:00 a fire tragedy

four people killed despite the efforts of firefighters. jim smith is live in lynn with the story tonight. jim? >> david tonight this investigation is intensifying. in fact this state fire marshal is now asking the public for help as they try determine a cause here. take look, you can see how badly damaged this home here is. a total loss after this deadly fire. a nightmare in lynn. flames consume a three unit apartment building with about 20 people inside around 1:00 a.m. two women were rescued. four people on the second floor were killed. young men living on the first floor were able to scramble to safety. tonight they are back at the scene reliving every terrible moment. them? >> no. >> too hot? >> yeah. the fire was coming to our face. we couldn't do nothing.

members that can live in a unit. however there have been ten other complaints over the last few years. the code violations involved sanitary issues. inspections showed violations for not having windows, floors and ceiling in good condition. there were 19 people living here in this building. the landlord has owned the build fog -- building for six years. back to you. also breaking tonight, aaron hernandez has been taken out of the prison's general population. they said a knife was found in his prison cell. of course he is serving a life sentence for the murder of lloyd. he faces additional murder charges.
