No reports yet of any runners being injured.

Suspect in custody?

Pictures are showing a big swath of blood on the sidewalk. Spectators took the full force.

Martin VW Mon Apr 15, 2013 4:51 pm

Just saw video, the crowd control fence billowed but nothing reached any runners.

With me being part auditor, I haven't seen (or don't remember seeing) reports on the following people:

Chelsea Young, Michael Young, John Pirog, Kathy Olney, Seth and Fostever.

If you can confirm they are safe, then that would be great.

BPD Press conference is in progress.

Getting reports from my running club that a lot of people stopped at 25.5 and 40K.

Not that it matters but 7 PM Bruins game is cancelled. Gives you a sense of how bad the impact is in the City.
