Two explosions went off near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday as runners completed the race and thousands of people cheered them on. The blasts were described by race organizers as two bombs, and witnesses told NBC News that there were widespread injuries, some severe.
Video from the finish line showed screams and an enormous cloud of white smoke, and about 20 seconds between the blasts. The Associated Press reported that bloody spectators were being carried to a medical tent that had been set up to care for tired runners.

Apparently a 5th bomb on another part of the route in front of JFK library and it went off

Edit: JFK part was not apart of it

I wish this website didn't censor swearing, so we can truly express what we think of the people that did this.

Yes, it's big news in Australia too. Sadly overshadowing the 1st Aussie to ever win the U.S. Masters.
