Two explosions being reported at/near the Boston Marathon finish line. Not yet determined whether it's an accident of some kind, or a deliberate action.

US TV networks are covering it live. We're still in the first hour: lots of different numbers about the injured are being reported.

If I heard correctly, there was a 3rd explosion at the JFK Library.

Last I heard was 2 dead and 110 injured.

I just found out that an acquaintance was just a 150 yards from the first blast. He had just finished the marathon a few minutes before.
