A developing story is coming out of Boston, MA within the hour: there were two explosions near the Boston Marathon Finish Line. CBS News is just reporting there are two confirmed deaths and 22 wounded and that number is expected to increase. The cause of the explosions are unknown at this time - if this was an accident or was deliberate.
As a precaution, the airways over Boston have been cleared of any aircrafts.
Let's be praying for those injured as well as rescuers at the scene, as those injured are being rescued at this very moment and taken to nearby hospitals.
