Three additional suspects have been taken into custody by police investigating the Boston Marathon bombings.
Boston Police Department announced on Twitter that three more suspects are in custody and more details will follow - but said there is no threat to public safety.
Police spokeswoman Cheryl Fiandaca confirmed the tweet but referred all other questions to the FBI.
The three people arrested are connected to bombing accused Dzhokhar Tsarnaev through the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth, where he was a student and allegedly helped him after the attacks, according to the Boston Globe.
Three people were killed and more than 260 injured on April 15 when two bombs exploded near the finish line.
Police have been investigating if suspects the Tsarnaev brothers had helpSuspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev died after a gunfight with police several days later. His brother Dzhokhar was captured and lies in a hospital prison.
The surviving brother, 19, faces federal charges of using a weapon of mass destruction and malicious destruction of property resulting in death over the double bombing.
Authorities say the brothers also killed an MIT police officer as they tried to escape, although no charges have been filed yet over his death.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev's relatives will claim his body now that his wife has agreed to release it, an uncle said. The 26-year-old's body has been at the medical examiner's office in Massachusetts since he died.
Amato DeLuca, the Rhode Island attorney for Tamerlan's widow, Katherine Russell, said his client had just learned that the medical examiner was ready to release the body and that she wants it released to his side of the family.
Police said Tamerlan ran out of ammunition before Dzhokhar dragged his body under a vehicle while fleeing the scene.
His cause of death has been determined but will not be made public until his remains are claimed.
