no, that's just a burned coat, the synthetic outer layer melted leaving the insulating layer intact.

If this was 20 years ago, considering the Boston location and the reported third bomb at the JFK Library, I would wonder if this was connected to IRA or anti-IRA activities in Northern Ireland. Today though I'm not aware of any active bombing or terror campaign by either side and my understanding is the peace process there is generally working.


There's still shootings and bombings but they're very rare. Nothing that would warrant this.


Nothing has   happened recently either that would provoke this, to my knowledge.

What's on the lady's legs ?  The lady sitting down on the blast site ?




If you mean the woman in the wheelchair, they cut her pants away looking for trauma to the legs. SOP.


Looks like she has puncture wounds on her legs too. Projectiles?

 



If the used ball bearings, and she was standing right by the blast, then that may explain her coat, hands and legs.

I think I know exactly where that happened. The old church is actually on a corner, and it's kitty corner to another old church, a famous Methodist church. There is a park in front of the Methodist church and a big hotel across the street from the park.    

I stayed at that hotel when I went o Boston several years ago. The 9/11 hijackers stayed at the hotel next odor to it.

I have pictures of that old church where the second bombing took place.


The old church is on the same side of the street that the bombs went off......just further down.  I know exactly where it is too, we walked Boylston street and right by that church multiple times a day when I was in Boston last March.

I was going out the door to an interview when the Special Reort came on. Watched for 30 seconds and went to work. I texted my cousin, who's husband runs it every year. I couldn't believe the response I got. She was sitting in the VIP seating section across from the first one with one of her two boys. My aunt had taken her daughter and my cousin's other little boy to get something to eat. My cousin and her boy saw everything. She's still crying. More to follow.





Glad  they are ok  physically.  Sorry they had to experience that.

In London, 1998, the trash cans were concrete and wider at the top than the bottom. You could still dispose of trash but the blast of a bomb would go up.
