    It's very sad. 6 people have been reported to have lost limbs or require amputation.

    The worst victims are at Bringham and Woman's hospital and you can call there. The lesser and non-life threatening injuries are at Mas General. You may also call there.

    My husband has been watching fox news station at work and said they just reported that someone is in custody

    YES! I haven't heard that yet, but am very happy to hear.

    New York Post is saying that too... but then the New York Post is also saying 12 people are dead, when everyone else is saying 2.

    I still don't understand how they managed to report 12.

    fox new....not a trust worthy news source....

    Depends... is it the local Fox News (whom I do trust but I'm biased because a friend of mine works for them) or the National Fox News (which I take with a grain of salt, but then I do for all corporate news sources as money is their biggest push, not truth or information).

    Me neither... unless it's a typo... but then that would be a might big typo.

    CNN is now also reporting that someone is in custody, but they're saying that the JFK library is not related..... then they said that someone being in custody was false
