I have just called my husband again and he said that they had been asked not to use telephones a lot. They don't know anything yet other than what news said. One of the runners for charity is still missing....,

Lets not talk about anything other than the events now please.

well then it's not politics or religion... So it will get moved .. I think if you are under attack it's important to figure out who. Treating the wounded and figuring who is attacking you and what the next move is would be my top priority

If a Justin Bieber post didn't get moved, this one shouldn't either.

Police clear the area at the finish line of the 2013 Boston Marathon.

Investigators have a suspect — a Saudi Arabian national — in the horrific Boston Marathon bombings, The Post has learned.

Law enforcement sources said the 20-year-old suspect was under guard at an undisclosed Boston hospital.

Fox News reported that the suspect suffered severe burns.

It was not immediately clear why the man was hospitalized and whether he was injured in the attack or in his apprehension.

The man was caught less than two hours after the 2:50 p.m. bombing on the finish line of the race, in the heart of Boston.

In addition, Boston police have surveillance video of someone bringing multiple backpacks to blast site, according to CBS News.

Police also confirmed that there was a third explosion, at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. It was not immediately clear how much damage was done or whether it was related to the bombings at the marathon finish line.

The library bombing occurred about 4:30 p.m. and more than a mile from the marathon.

A law enforcement source confirmed to The Post that 12 people were killed and nearly 50 were injured in today's blast.

Does the NY Post have a source nobody else does?

Not saying their info is wrong, just wondering why it's so different from everyone else's.
