                  2 Explosions at Boston Marathon Finish Line

   A number of people have been injured after two large explosions struck
   near the finish line of the Boston Marathon Monday.
   Television footage showed scenes of confusion, with streets littered
   with debris and blood, and paramedics carrying stretchers.
   Bloody spectators were being carried to the medical tent that had been
   set up to care for fatigued runners. Police wove through competitors as
   they ran back toward the course.
   Boston is a major metropolis located in the northeastern U.S. The
   marathon is a significant event the city hosts every year.
