Ms. Campbell’s mother was told she had been injured

The FBI agent in charge of the investigation told reporters Tuesday there have been no arrests and “the range of suspects classic oakley and motives remains wide open.” Special Agent Rick DesLauriers said the two explosions – spaced 10 seconds and roughly 100 metres apart near the race’s finish line – erupted around 2:50 p.m. from two black nylon backpacks. They most likely contained a crude device favoured by terrorist groups in distant war zones: kitchen-variety pressure cookers stuffed with explosives and metal pellets, nails and other deadly shrapnel. The work of identifying those killed by that explosive combination was nearly complete late Tuesday, when Boston University and the Chinese consulate in New York confirmed that one of the victims is a Chinese grad student who was studying at the institution, located very near the blast zone. The other confirmed dead are eight-year-old Martin Richard and 29-year-old Krystle Campbell. The youngest victim was standing with his family when the blast hit. His mother and younger sister suffered serious injuries. Initially, Ms. Campbell’s mother was told she had been injured and taken to hospital. Upon entering the hospital room, she saw only their daughter’s friend Karen Rand. “I said, ‘That’s not my daughter, that’s Karen! Where’s my daughter?’ ” Ms. Campbell told local news channel WCVB. She got her answer when medical staff showed her a picture of one of the three dead spectators. Identification belonging to the friends had been mixed up in the commotion. Mr. Obama will try to soothe the grief palpable oakley ducati sunglasses throughout Boston when he speaks at an interfaith service on Thursday. But on Tuesday, he chose harsher words. “Any time bombs are used to target innocent civilians, it is an act of terror,” the President said, calling the attacks a “heinous and cowardly act.” He also attempted to quell wild speculation around the perpetrator, stressing that it remains unknown whether the attacker is foreign or domestic.
