After Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured alive Friday night, it was revealed that thermal imaging had been utilized in the hunt to find him. The 19-year-old was discovered hiding in a boat after the death of his older brother in a violent shootout with police, and a manhunt nearly shut down the city.

The OFWs are seeking immediate repatriation after the Saudi government launched a crackdown on undocumented migrant workers. Most of the campers are undocumented trafficking victims or those who ran away from abusive employers. GMA News/Migrante Int'l

Lynn Clay grabbed her camera to snap a frame of the floodwaters outside one of the windows in her office building at the Riverfront Plaza in Grand Rapids, Mich., and captured a little fish swimming by. She didn't even realize the fish was in the frame until she looked at it later and, as even the most seasoned photographer will admit, she said, "I got lucky!"

Clay told NBCNews.com she has never seen the Grand River this high before. "The water is usually only 18 inches to 2 feet deep outside the building, but now it's probably 20 feet deep. It's up over the walkways, the roads, and up the buildings to the windows."
