Local news is reporting that the suspect may have had several backpacks and have been involved.
Makes sense. Since 9/11 the Boston Marathon takes pretty serious precautions. I remember reading an article about that maybe 5-8 years ago. Remove trash cans from the area, etc. etc. Copley Plaza isn't exactly Times Square, but it's a major hot spot -- wouldn't surprise me if there was major camera/video coverage all the time, much less leading up to the marathon.
Makes sense that the guy planted the devices only shortly before they went off.
