| A heavily armed Federal Bureau of Investigation team stormed a Boston hotel searching for suspects in the terrorism attacks in New York and Washington. A couple of dozen officers, wearing bulletproof vests and carrying shields, were seen bringing fiber-optic equipment into the Westin Hotel in the Back Bay section. WHDH-TV reported the officers were using the equipment to check under hotel-room doors on the hotel's 16th floor, quoting a person who was inside the hotel. Three ambulances and a police car were stationed outside the hotel as a crowd of onlookers gathered there. Police officers returned repeatedly to a police truck outside to retrieve the fiber-optic equipment, which can be slipped under doors to see inside rooms, WHDH-TV reported.
