Two blasts were reported near the finish line of the annual 26.2-mile Boston Marathon, resulting in at least three dead and 176 injured. The explosions—the first of which was on the north side of Boylston Street—occurred roughly three hours after the winners crossed the finish line. Traumatically injured spectator 27-year-old Jeff Bauman Jr, shown here, had to have both lower limbs removed at Boston Medical Center because of extensive vascular and bone damage.
