4:38 PM EST: Tom Putnam, director of the JFK Presidential Library, says today's fire in the library and museum was not caused by a bomb and was confined to a mechanical room.


Although the police commissioner just said it was believed to be related?

The police commissioner said the casualty number is rising, but didn't provide any details.

There's no byline on the story either. It's shaky at best.

Definitely confusion about JFK among officials. Some say bomb some say not.

yes any early reports like that are pretty questionable. We all remember the Atlanta Olympic bombing where the media basically had convicted a completely innocent man of the bombing.

Mike's fine, just got an email from him

Both sad and scary. Thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families.

:thumbup: Excellent

Fox is also saying that they have a "person of interest" in custody

Interesting.... MSNBC had a female voice say "hey guys, there a picture..." and then she got cut off, and the Chris Matthews says "we'll have more on that picture everyone is talking about..." and then he changed the subject

I guess everyone has concluded the JFK Library was not a bomb, but MSBNC saying there are 2 other confirmed bombs found. Not sure if they have been detonated.

I'm going to Boston next month, never been. I've always wanted to go to Fenway and we have a family trip scheduled. I'm still going but, this really makes you stop and pause for a moment.

Just think about all the bags and other stuff that would have been left behind. And all of them have to be thought of suspiciously.

I am betting its a domestic terrorist that is upset that he owed taxes today.
