There's no word of any New Mexican injured in the Boston Marathon explosions. Eighty or more people from the Zia state took part in the race, most of them from Albuquerque. A half dozen or so Santa Feans took part.
Its all clear on East Palace Avenue this morning after the police bomb squad removed a WWII-era grenade from a residence. A woman living at the home had found it and called the authorities. Celina Westervelt of the police department told KSFR they locked down the immediate neighborhood while they investigated. ***
