Permalink 3 dead, 130 injured as blasts strike Boston Marathon finish line

At least three people have been killed and more than 130 others injured when two explosions shattered America's oldest and most prestigious marathon, the Boston Marathon, as runners crossed the finish line. - Witnesses said the first blast went off at the Boylston Street finish line as spectators were cheering on people about three hours into the 117th running of the 26.2-mile (42.19-kilometer) race on Monday. It was followed by a second explosion just seconds later. Smoke rose 50 feet in the air, and people began running and screaming after hearing the noise. Video images showed bloody spectators looking dazed and chaos broke out. Ambulances and firefighters poured into the scene, rushing the victims to hospitals. Spectator Samantha Bissonnette said she was about half a mile (0.8 kilometers) away when the explosions occurred.

Local 15: Bomb Sniffing Dogs, Spotters on Roofs Before Explosions - University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach, who was near the finish line of the Boston Marathon when a series of explosions went off, said he thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines. "They kept making announcements to the participants do not worry, it's just a training exercise," Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15.

Tony Cartalucci: FBI's History of Handing "Terror Suspects" Live Explosives - What takes shape is an FBI at the center of perpetuating America's terror menace, not at the forefront of fighting it. With every attack foiled or carried out involving FBI uncover operatives revealed only after successful "stings" or in the case of the World Trade Center bombings, an inconvenient witness stepping forward and revealing the FBI's role, the first and foremost suspect considered after any bombing on US soil should be the FBI itself.
