Montgomery County community where the suspects' uncles live besieged by media.
The investigation into the Boston Marathon bomber case turned to Maryland on Friday with media flocking to a Montgomery County neighborhood to hear the suspects' uncle plea for his surviving nephew to surrender. Some 12 hours later, police captured Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev hiding wounded in a boat at a house in Watertown, MA. Speaking to reporters outside his home in Montgomery Village, a planned community near Gaithersburg, Ruslan Tsarni said he wanted to directly address his 19-year-old nephew who was the focus of a manhunt that locked-down Boston and its suburbs Friday. "Turn yourself in. Ask for forgiveness,” Tsarni said, flanked by cameras and reporters in front of his home in a quiet suburban Washington, DC, neighborhood. Tsarni said …

National and local media, FBI agents and county police converged on the Fairidge community to speak with an uncle of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.
When Richard Kaplan left his home in Montgomery Village's Fairidge community Friday morning, he couldn't have anticipated the scene upon his return.

It is unfortunate that reporters insisted on making a "media circus" of this in an otherwise quiet Montgomery Village neighborhood. The suspect (allegedly) has two other uncles in the Montgomery Village area.

A Montgomery Village resident says a photo of a hole in the ground near the Thomas Choice Condominiums shows a sinkhole.
Does Montgomery Village have sinkholes? One resident thinks the Village might. The above photos were taken of a ground depression near Thomas Choice Condominium, in the Apple Ridge Road area of Montgomery Village. Montgomery Village Foundation Director of Community Management Karen Kodjanian said the sinkhole is on private property (not owned by Montgomery Village) and damaged a pipe for a nearby pond. The pipe is scheduled to be fixed next week, Kodjanian said. On Friday, March 1, a Florida man was believed to be dead after being swallowed by a sinkhole the night before. The sinkhole was reportedly 20- to 30-feet wide. SPEAK OUT: Have you seen or heard of anything like this in Montgomery Village? Tell us in the comments!

Amy, sorry but I almost had to laugh 'cause response from MVF seemed typical & similar to basic response I've received over the years..."It's not my (our) job. We only take care of tennis courts, swimming pools, etc. Call your HOA"! Then you call your HOA & get the same runaround..."it's not our job; call MVF". In the meantime, Amy, you probably should have worn a bungee cord in case you fell … more ›
