Live updates from the Boston Marathon explosions

Two explosions shattered the euphoria of the Boston Marathon finish line on Monday, sending authorities out on the course to carry off the injured while the stragglers in the 26.2-mile trek from Hopkinton were rerouted away from the smoking site of the blasts.

3rd & 7 37yd

Significantly less helicopter traffic now. Not sure what, if anything that means. Media/locals hoarded into Target parking lot.
