O say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare,
the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night
that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Yeah trying to figure out what they are talking about. One officer sounded shocked and said "wow they are really treating this like the real deal", "ok calming down now and watching".
Treating what like the real deal?

Hi guys and girls checking in from the UK. Can someone basically round up the facts of what has happened in Boston like put it in bullet points. I'm reading about a Saudi nation being arrested? I've just got in from meal and to be honest I don't have the time to read through 20 pages and my mrs is demanding attention. I don't usually do this I like to have a read but if someone can briefly sum up what happened would be great
- Two bombs exploded at Boston Marathon
- Media are reporting 3 dead, 50+ injured
- More bombs were found in different places
- A third bomb MAY have exploded at a local library
- There is a suspect being held at a nearby hospital

I don't think he has anything to do with it. The picture clearly shows everyone has not yet "reacted" to the explosion. A person walking on the roof of a building over a major public event does not seem out of the ordinary to me.

Police Commissioner Ed Davis says the area around the finish line will be closed for 24 hours while police investigate. He adds that reports police have a suspect in custody are inaccurate.
