The player providing the police scanner audio is experiencing a very high volume of listeners, so you may have to reload it a number of times before getting it to work, but it is a confirmed link, so be patient as the level of interest in the developing situation in Boston is extremely high.

The first reports -- first via social media and then via news outlets -- about the pair of explosions at the Boston Marathon have not been conclusive as to the number of people dead or injured, and officials have yet to make an official statement about the incident.

Reports have emerged that law enforcement officials were investigating a possible third explosive device near the Mandarin Hotel in Boston, and the city is on high alert as more information continues to emerge regarding the horror in the Massachusetts capital.
