Yes on all news Live now.


Is this their first terrorism attack since 9/11?


CBS say it could have been a Sports Shop blowing outwards
so could also be a gas leak or something

One of the Explosions came from a Store

arista 15-04-2013 07:28 PM

Thing is

Or is this a Terror attack?

King Gizzard 15-04-2013 07:36 PM

too much of a coincidence that it's at a finish line with loads of people to just be gas explosions :(

Hope he's alright Roy.

Been watching this on the news looks like there could be quite a few casualties.

Yes unless it was fluke.

NYC has gone on High Alert.

CNN keeps saying could be Gas
but all the others are saying it could be more things

Kizzy 15-04-2013 07:40 PM

Hope your father is safe roy.
How horrible, really hope it wasn't something intentional.

Brother Leon 15-04-2013 07:41 PM

@JackieBrunoNECN: I saw people's legs blown off. Horrific. Two explosions. Runners were coming in and saw unspeakable horror.

Good lord. Prayers go to the people of Boston.

Ammi 15-04-2013 07:42 PM

...I hope your dad's ok Roy..

bbfan1991 15-04-2013 07:46 PM

NYC Police deploy anti terrorism vehicles after what has happened in Boston.

King Gizzard 15-04-2013 07:47 PM

Ahh there's a video of the actual blast on twitter going around :/ off camera though

Roy Mars III 15-04-2013 07:48 PM

Thanks guys. He is okay. I was worried because the three hour mark is around the time he would finish.

The Boston Marathon is huge, the whole city of Boston pretty much closes down for it. Apparently there may be bombs elsewhere in the city.

arista 15-04-2013 07:48 PM

Fox News has found out Each Explosion was
on Each Side of the street.
And Shot Gun Pellets in the bomb

That sounds like Terrorism, sadly

InOne 15-04-2013 07:50 PM



Looks chaotic :/

Ammi 15-04-2013 07:50 PM

..3 dead so far..

Ammi 15-04-2013 07:52 PM

..they're saying it was explosive devices and not gas explosions...

Josy 15-04-2013 07:52 PM

Glad he's alright Roy.

Theres supposedly secondary devices been found unexploded.

AnnieK 15-04-2013 07:53 PM

I hate things like big sporting events etc in case things like this happen....it's always innocent people who get caught up in it...

Scarlett. 15-04-2013 07:54 PM

Holy ****
https://vine.co/v/bFdt5uwg6JZ

Pretty shocking stuff :(

arista 15-04-2013 07:56 PM

Even Euro News showed FoxNews clip about the shot gun pellets.

Maybe its a American Terrorist angry at the Barrack Gun Law

Scarlett. 15-04-2013 07:59 PM

Reports of a third explosion, apparently a controlled explosion this time.

Yes

King Gizzard 15-04-2013 08:00 PM

What's with the 15th April and tragedies? :/

MTVN 15-04-2013 08:03 PM

Jesus, is it confirmed that people are dead yet? BBC is just reporting that there's several serious injuries

thesheriff443 15-04-2013 08:03 PM

12 dead so far!

arista 15-04-2013 08:04 PM

The numbers will go up.

MTVN 15-04-2013 08:05 PM

What's the source for the number of deaths?

bbfan1991 15-04-2013 08:05 PM

Security will have to be stepped up for the London Marathon then, which is happening soon?

Ammi 15-04-2013 08:06 PM

..Fox News live is saying 2 dead and 22 injured...
