A message from Boston Marathon Victim

So Monday night saw two explosions tear through the crowd at the finish line at the Boston Marathon in the US. I wasn't go to talk much about the attacks and so have just shown you this message. A message of peace. This boy was one of the three people killed by Mondays attacks were hundreds of others were injured.
 
This is Richard Martin,
He was 8 years old,
He was standing at the finish line with his mother and sisters eating ice cream,
His mother suffered serious head injuries and had to have brain surgery,
His little sister lost a leg,
Richard lost his life.
 
 
 
Richard leaves with this message, a poster he made in memory of a black teenager shot dead in Florida.
 
 
The other two victims were a Chinese Graduate at Boston University and Krystle Campbell who was 29. It is feared the death toll is going to rise due to the severity of the injuries.
