Marc Fisher Co-Authors Washington Post Article on Boston Bombings

Marc Fisher co-wrote the Washington Post's major roundup article on the Boston Marathon bombing of April 15. Drawing on reports from Post correspondents in Boston and elsewhere, Marc and co-author Vernon Loeb wrote,

BOSTON — On the day after, the what and the how of the Boston Marathon bombings became clearer — explosive devices crafted from pressure cookers and stuffed with nails and ball bearings killed three people and injured 176 — but the who and the why remained a mystery.
With no one claiming responsibility for Monday’s attack, hundreds of investigators in Boston and Washington began combing through more than 2,000 video and still images of the race route, searching for clues that might help determine whether the bombings were an act of domestic or foreign terrorism, planned by an organized enemy or a lone actor.
