On the drive home from work on Monday, was shocked to hear there were 2 explosions near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. In total were 2 deaths and 160 injuries. The injuries resulted in losing arms and legs. Boston is the pinacle to running and that means those injured may never be able to run (or even walk) again.
On the drive to work Thursday morning, heard on the radio that one of the two suspects was shot and died in the hospital. The other surrendered Thursday night hiding in a boat. This is after a 7-11 store is robbed at gunpoint, a man taken hostage for 30 minutes in his car before being let go, an MIT police officer killed, and the entire town outside of Boston in lockdown for the day.
This tragedy really upset me and touched home since who would have imagined this to happen at a marathon. As everyone is wondering, the question is "Why?" How could the 2 suspects, who immigrated to the USA to get away from the war and danger choose to cause so much damage to a country that offered them safety?
