This is just sickening!!
As information continues flowing in about the unthinkably tragic events that occurred in Boston this afternoon, we’re sad to report one of the two confirmed victims who died in today’s explosion was an 8-year-old boy!
The Boston Globe is dispensing information on Twitter as quickly as it can — it reported:
Boston Marathon Toll rises even higher. More than 120 treated at 7 local hospitals.

Ugh! There are simply no words to adequately describe the sadness this little boy’s parents must be feeling right now.
Our hearts sincerely go out to them and everyone else in and around Boston who were affected by this terrible terrible attack.
Many details of these marathon explosions are still unknown, but moments ago President Obama reassured the nation that the federal government is doing everything in its power to ensure those responsible “feel the full weight of justice.”
We will clue you in as soon as we learn more…
