Just when you thought the grand, annual event could not get any more horrific, a third explosion kicks in at JFK Library and this time it's believed to be fire related. At first the third hit of the day was believed to be related to the marathon but cnn.com has reported that this initial belief has been dismissed and a person-finder has been set up by Google for friends and families looking for reports on loved ones at the scene.
The White House has also issued a statement saying that President Obama has been notified of the tragedy and that his administration is in contact with authorities. The President will also be making an official statement today.
