IHSS Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 So today was the Boston marathon, and two bombs went off. Right now there are 2 dead and 23 injured. A third bomb went off at the JFK library in Dorchester about an hour later. No injuries or deaths at the third one as of the moment. This is pretty messed up they don't know if it was terrorist or who it was. No groups have claimed it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edsel-Dan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) Latest report is that the Library had a Fire in the Mechanical room and NO explosive at all there!! At least one Bomb was found that did not detonate. (Might be 2 of them) Wish there was a way to Alter these type of "people" to prevent them from doing anything like this!

Quick GMC Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 JFK library was confirmed as a detonated device, not a mechanical fire. So far 3 bombs went off. They have found 2 others and pre-detonated them. They also found a suspicious duffel bag outside the hospital where many of the injured were taken. They found video at the mall of someone leaving a back[ac and running out. They sent in an EOD dog at the California Pizza Kitchen after chasing a suspect with a backpack This is serious, it is most definitely a deliberate attack. So far 2 confirmed dead by Boston PD and 60+ injured including lost limbs. The mall is being cleared out Here is a link to the live FD scanner http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/497/web Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quick GMC Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 update from Boston Globe: 2 dead 90 injured EOD approaching duffle bag near hospital, no confirmation on whether or not it's a device. Fox News says PD have someone "of interest" in custody, but it's Fox, no solid confirmation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quick GMC Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Live scanners in Boston, including PD http://www.radioreference.com/apps/audio/?mid=13 Video of the explosion (Nothing graphic) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfCK3Ar7Yus&feature=player_embedded https://vine.co/v/bFdt5uwg6JZ This is pretty scary.

IHSS Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 There still claiming that there was an explosion at JFK they just don't know if it was a bomb or not. There have been 2 additional bombs found and disarmed. There also searching the entire 26 mile route for multiple packages found along the route.

Scale-Master Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 JFK library was confirmed as a detonated device, not a mechanical fire. So far 3 bombs went off. Not so fast... From the Dorchester Reporter: "The director of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum says that a 3 p.m. fire inside the building's mechanical room was not caused by a device and is apparently not related to the explosions at the Boston Marathon finish line. Tom Putnam, the director of the JFK Library, said that the incident was confined to a mechanical room near the archive section of the library."
