Multiple Explosions at Boston Marathon
 
Anyone there this afternoon?

Id guess terroristic attack. Its common for them to use two explosions set on a delay to obtain maximum destruction. Seen this happen overseas.

WTF!

Security is usually really tight at these events. So im a little bothered by this. The first thing before a race is to secure these types of businesses to prevent anything like this from happening.
Unfortunatly i dont have a television in my office and access is limited to my network when trying to view a live feed.

Yeah I just read about it a minute ago and for some reason I decided to come here and check out if anyone else knew haha. It's very disturbing, and sad. I have to go to work now, so i'm pretty sure there will be more details of it later when I get back home.

Be safe everyone!

Theres a video on youtube. i cant link it that shows the actual explosion and a man falling down in the street. IM sure there is plenty of camera footage out there that cannot be released.
I just cant believe that security wasn't tighter at one of the largest events in the US every year. Kinda pissed actually.

I just heard about this from one of my techs. After they honored the Sandy Hook victims at the beginning of the race they're faced with this at the end. Truly terrible.
