University of Mobile’s Cross Country Coach, who was near the finish line of the Boston Marathon when a series of explosions went off, said he thought it was odd there were bomb sniffing dogs at the start and finish lines.
"They kept making announcements to the participants do not worry, it's just a training exercise," Coach Ali Stevenson told Local 15.
Stevenson said he saw law enforcement spotters on the roofs at the start of the race. He's been in plenty of marathons in Chicago, D.C., Chicago, London and other major metropolitan areas but has never seen that level of security before.
Good night you all. Some terrible stuff today but here is the good. The best in humanity. Video of people rushing to help. It sound like some bombs did not detonate. Thank you for less casualties than could have happened. And my thoughts go out to all those affected.
See ya later and thank you all for your great work on getting info out today.
