Boston Marathon hit by explosions

Two explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon have left an unknown number of people injured.

Video and photographs from Boston show a scene of confusion, with emergency services descending on the scene and bloodied spectators being taken to a medical tent.

"There are a lot of people down," said one runner quoted by AP news agency.

I've always been wary of marathons...although that is disease, but obviously there's other risks. :coffee:

Im assuming he is
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

About three hours after the main finish, by which time the vast majority of people would have finished, and people dispersed.

BBC TV is saying the explosion came from inside a nearby hotel.

Well, this will keep the 24-news channels busy for the next few hours at least. :roll:

Available footage is already being repeated ad nauseum, but solid details are unlikely to emerge for some time.

"Massacre?"

Really?

Tone down the hyperbole until we actually know what happened.

Fuck.

Explosions at Boston Marathon, would be much more accurate.
