Police officer near Boston Marathon finish line: 'There are secondary devices that have been found and are unexploded.'

A bunch of people from my company were across the street. I guess it blew people up in the air.

That's a block from the location of the finish line.

Interesting.

 

So, it would have been about 3 in 3 blocks.

They are searching for additional devices like crazy. Already found at least one.

The area is a couple blocks from the Prudential center...that's the big buildings you can see in the background when there's an outdoor shot from Fenway.

 

Very dense business area.

Hard to tell verified information from rumor at this point, but I saw that the bombs had ball bearings in them and that there were secondary devices found? Which would target first responders. That smells like terrorism.

A huge thumbs up to the people who went running TOWARDS the explosions in Boston to aid the injured. That's REAL heroism.

It's obviously terrorism, it is whether it is domestic or foreign.

My buddy was down the street at a bar. It's obviously pretty crazy down there now. Lots of places being locked down and sweeps of buildings.
