Monday, April 15th, 2013, Patriot Day.
4:50 PM: At about 2:50 PM during the running of the Boston Marathon, two bombs went off within a minute of each other. Two people at this count, were killed, and 23 injured. Late word states that a third device has detonated at the John F. Kennedy Library at around 4:00 PM. One man at present, is in custody. The two who were killed, were decapitated by the explosion.
5:15 PM: Hotels in the area have increased their security. The White House Secret Service staff have pushed back the barricades away from Pennsylvania Avenue, keeping observers a safe distance from the building. Police are asking people to stay home and if they have to be out, to stay away from large groups. One person of interest, a man with severe burns, is being held by police. At this time, we are not certain if he is a victim or a terrorist. There is a Penske truck that is surrounded by the police, and we are not yet clear what involvement it has in the tragedy.
:
Cell phone service has been shut down to prevent any more devices from being detonated via cell phone. This may indicate that the bombs were detonated in this manner.
5:26 PM: It was just learned that the JFK Library incident was actually not related to the bombing but was the result of a fire.
If this turns out to be an Islamist attack, will Obama call it "sports place violence"? If it is not an Islamic attack, will Muslim jihadists feel sad for the victims?
