Video And Pics After The Jump

The Boston Marathon was rocked today by two bombs. At least 2 people are dead and 23 are hurt with what is being described as gruesome injuries. It's highly possible the injury toll will rise as police try to contain a chaotic scene.

27,000 runners took part in the race. The explosions occurred near the finish line.

Jackie Bruno, a reporter for New England Cable News reported on Twitter that she was close to the blast and saw many injured.

“We saw two big puffs. I thought maybe it was fireworks. Then it went off again. And then all of a sudden we heard people crying and running away. It was a huge horde of people just running away,” he said. “We just got away from the scene and away from tall buildings. I’m scared and emotional. I’m wondering if there are people who I was volunteering with who were still there and got hurt," said witness Serghino Rene according to NBC.

"There are people who are really, really bloody," Laura McLean, a runner from Toronto, told the Associated Press. "They were pulling them into the medical tent."

The AP is reporting that two more bombs were found and were being disabled.

**UPDATE**

The Boston Globe is reporting that at least 125 people were injured in today's bombing in addition to the 2 previously reported deaths at the Boston Marathon. No arrests have been made although police continue to question people.

“We’re questioning many people, but there is no one in custody at this point,” Boston Police Commissioner Edward F. Davis said.

The bombs exploded at 2:50 p.m. eastern time. It happened on Patriots Day, which is a state holiday in Massachusetts that celebrates the beginning of the American Revolution.

President Obama has vowed to bring those responsible to justice.

“We still do not know who did this or why. And people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts,” Obama said today. “But make no mistake, we will get to the bottom of this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice.”
