“They kept making announcements on the loud speaker that it was just a drill and there was nothing to worry about,”
alot of the early eyewitness accounts will be inaccurate.. and conflicting with the official accounts..
Three other undetonated devices were later discovered by authorities. A federal law enforcement source told The Post there are at least 12 dead and at least 132 people have been treated at seven area hospitals.

there are several conflicting reports
one eyewitness at the JFK library said the fire trucks and police were there before the fire..
currently they are looking for a yellow rental van that tried to access the scene with "medical gear'.. at about the same time as the explosions.. driven by a dark possible foreign male..
and another with a black hoodie..
Boston police reportedly on lookout for ‘darker-skinned male,’ possibly foreign national BOLO put out by Boston law enforcement for "dark skinned or black male" who tried to gain restricted access minutes b4 1st explosion #CNN
MORE- The man was seen wearing a black sweatshirt & had a black packback. Possible foreign national based on accent
CNN’s Nick Valencia is reporting that Boston police are on the lookout for a “darker skinned or black male” following today’s bombing at the Boston Marathon. Police were already on the alert for a yellow rental truck that was said to have been turned away from the race route.
this is a horrific event.. and I doubt if much of the early information is completely accurate.. other then the carnage..
the picture most of US have seen on the news does not show how horrific it was..
a friend sent me a link ... I did not look at many of the pictures.. they are horrific.. I certainly will not sleep tonight..
warning they are graphic. the first time I looked at it I stopped looking at #6 it is a horrific example of how bad this was..
6 13 28 are disturbing.. horrific.
the pictures will be forever in my mind.. like those of Sept 11 and seeing people jump from the buildings.

but not unlike other horrific tragedies in these pictures.. We see many good people that stayed and helped.. because there is more good in our country then there is evil in the world..
