The victim of a carjacking by Boston Marathon bombing suspects, a 26-year-old Chinese engineer, who goes by the nickname "Danny," described his harrowing ordeal on NBC's "Today" show Wednesday. To describe the agonizing 90-minute ride, the man appeared with his face concealed and his voice modified.
Three nights after the bombing, Danny was sitting in his Mercedes SUV when a man approached from behind, put his hand through the open window and opened the door from the inside. He then pointed a gun at Danny asking if he knew of the bombing.
"I said, "Yes, of course,''' Danny said. "Then he said, 'I did that. And I just killed a policeman in Cambridge.'''
The attacker was Tamerlan Tsarnaev. He ordered Danny to drive the car while pointing a gun at him. Tsarnaev's younger brother Dzhokhar was following them in a sedan. Danny's body was shaking so much that he had trouble driving
"Tamerlan told me, 'Relax, man. Slow down. Don't drive too fast,'' Danny said.
Tamerlan soon took over the wheel and Dzhokhar joined them in the Mercedes. The attackers transfered items from the sedan into the Mercedes. Danny didn't know it at the time, but those items were explosives, which the brothers later hurled at police officers during the firefight in Watertown, Mass.
Danny, meanwhile, was plotting his escape. The brothers stopped as a gas station in Cambridge with Dzhokhar leaving the vehicle go to an A.T.M. and pump gas. That's when Danny unbuckled his seatbelt with his left hand, opened the door with his right hand and ran from the car.
I took off,'' Danny said. "[Tamerlan] tried to grab me. He was trying to grab me. It was very close. I can feel it."
Danny ran to another gas station and called 911. Authorities used his car's satellite system and the iPhone he left behind to track the suspects.
"I think Dzhokhar is, like, a follower,'' Danny said. "He went out to the A.T.M. (at the gas station). He went out to get the gas. Tamerlan never got out of the car."
