Explosion Boston Marathon #1

[Moe]

Boston Red Sox played their game at 11:00 this morning, so the crowd could go to see the finish on Patriots Day every year. I'm scared, my family is all there,

OMG- could this be North Korea?

Crossed my mind, but it's too soon to tell who's responsible. I'm just hoping more explosions don't happen in different locations.

I hope there isn't more where they are moving everyone... lease:

The CBS link is overloaded, but keep trying. It's by far the best Boston news.

I can't tell for sure but it looks to me like it could have been in front of the Marathon Sports store.

I don't think this is terrorist act from other countries imo. It seems like a homegrown jerk. All moo

Have to look at mine, I know my cousin was at the Red Sox game, she had Monster Seats and was bragging about it earlier.

If you hear an explosion shortly, it's the police doing it on Boyleston street. It's police on a controlled explosion.

The window of the Marathon Sports store was blown out.
They garbage cans appear to be behind the announcers stand.

About 27,000 people from 96 countries run the Marathon each year. An attack on the world, then.

The race was dedicated to Sandy Hook victims; it's a few days until the Oklahoma bombing anniversary. I am not pointing fingers here but it just seems suggestive...
