Prayers go out to all those affected in Boston, any news on the motivation behind these horrible attacks?

Nothing yet. No one has claimed responsibility.

NY Post:

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.

I found sad that these type of unfortunate things keep happening to my US neighbors, nothing i can do to help but pray for the youth to get over it. The youngers have been through such mess i cant imagine myself being there at an early age and getting out psychologically healthy.
Some how they keep getting up after every punch only to get an harder hit.
I really hope that soon this miss fortune will stop and the USA can re conquere the greatness of there plag that has been loosing its colors since too long now .

Sincerely, your Canadian neighbor.
We are so close...but still so far...and we still find ways to appreciate each others company on this side of the American continent.

Police commissioner has confirmed that no one has been arrested. This thing about the Saudi man is just an unsubstantiated rumour at the moment.

[AjaxMilanBarcaSC]

Apparently someone is being questioned now. 50 injured so far. Sad.

As BB fans we are used to that.

I would ask that people please be very cautious and respectful of others when 'reporting' things like this nature. The media is quick to jump on things because they want to be first to break the news and get traffic to their sites, just be patient and the story will evolve... please do not make accusations and assumptions.

Sad day. Our thoughts and prayers with our American friends.

Yeah until I hear it from the authorities directly I remain sceptical.

[mystic84]

From here, Italy, I'm really close to those in Boston and to the American people. I feel so sad about what's just happened.

[skelleytech]

We are here in Boston following news closely. Nobody make any assumptions as they don't know what motivated this or who is responsible. Everything you're hearing are rumors and speculation.
