We know there were explosions(s) and people were hurt and atleast three dead.Every news outlet is reporting something different. Your article says inside a hotel, MSNBC is saying inside the public library.... It's a terrible thing to happen but y'all just calm down until someone gives an official word.0 -
Uh, it's all irrelevant. Explosions happened and blood is everywhere. The "facts" aren't going to give the injured their limbs back.Every news outlet is reporting something different. Your article says inside a hotel, MSNBC is saying inside the public library.... It's a terrible thing to happen but y'all just calm down until someone gives an official word.

Agreed. I'm even seeing suicide bombers. People should keep quiet until there are known details. Initial reports are almost always guesses.0 -
Waiting to hear from a friend who was running today.
How awful! 0 -
my mom is there right now... (and finished a half hour or so ago)
thankfully, i am in contact with her, but i am so nervous now.0 -
Where did we as a Country go so wrong? What could someone possibly get out of killing/injuring innocent people?0

I have friends there too, I heard about it a few mins ago, doesnt look good!!! 0

A friend of mine is there, luckily they finished the race before the explosions and was on their way back to the hotel. My heart goes out to everyone there, this is really scary!!0

What a disgusting and cowardly act.
I'm guessing it won't be long before contact becomes impossible, if it hasn't already. The cellular network won't be able to handle to massive amount of increased traffic that is hitting it right now. Hopefully everyone hears from their loved ones soon.0 -
I am...just...there are no words.
I cannot imagine what these people are going through, as well as the families of all the runners who aren't there (and the ones that were). And the spectators that were right there and...wow.
Sometimes the world we live in terrifies me. This is one of those times.0 -
Glad to hear you're in contact with her and she's ok!
update: she literally just texted me and asked me what it was...
she finished maybe 15 minutes before she heard the explosions
this is so nerve-wrecking 0 -
Absolutely horrible and tragic!0

Glad to hear your friends are safe!0 -
reports from a race official:
In the VIP section at the finish line, the area that was affected by the blasts, there were Newtown families there.0 -
My prayers are with those involved and their families who are waiting to hear from loved ones. Just how awful.0

What a disgusting and cowardly act.
My thoughts exactly. I hope justice is swiftly brought to the cowards who perpetrated this act . Sick and so sad that we live in a world where events like this are becoming more and more common.0
