Washington, D.C. - Congressman Dave Loebsack released the following statement this evening after the suspect in the Boston bombing was captured.

"I am relieved that the tragic events, which have terrorized Boston and the nation over the past five days, seem to have come to an end this evening.  The work of the first responders, law enforcement officials and the National Guard has been truly heroic. Now that the suspect has been captured, he must face the full force of our judicial system."
