High alert is an understatement.Īir quality is being checked for chemical attacks. People trying to help their fellowman get as far away from the epicenter and away from the blast site and to safety. Everybody was frightened and running away, the police are running in to help those scared and injured. What’s going on? Who did this? Why did they do this? There are so many questions with no answers yet but right now, the focus is to get those hurt help. Injuries sustained include severe burns, cuts from glass blown and severing limbs with two fatalities.
#BOSTON BOMBING PHOTO POLICE DEAD LITTLE BOY PORTABLE#
It is reported that they were small portable bombs. These people were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. We never know when these things can happen. As runners were finishing up the race and their family and friends waiting to cheer them on, everyone enjoying this beautiful spring day when suddenly, they were blown into the scaffolding and their lives changed forever. My heart goes out to those who have been injured and traumatized today. All I can think of are those families so excited to see their loved one cross the finish line but instead they were the victims of a bombing. I hate this vulnerable feeling, even more so now that I have children. I am shocked and horrified.Īll those feelings that I felt on that day on September 11th when the planes crashed into the twin towers came lurching forward. They are calling this an ongoing event and advising all Bostonians to stay at home and not to congregate in large crowds. According to authorities, there was a third explosion at the JFK library. The 26,000 runners were running in honor of the Newton victims with a flag with 26 stars at the finish line. There were some 500,000 happy unsuspecting spectators waiting to cheer on their loved ones at the finish line. The explosions happened 100- 150 yards apart. Today at 2:50 pm EST, 2 explosions went off 5- 15 seconds apart on the crowded streets in front or in the Marathon Sports Running center near the intersection of Boylston and Exeter Street leaving 23 injured and 2 dead, one an 8-year-old child, so far. This Patriot’s Day the 117th Boston Marathon was bombed near the finish line.
