There is conflicting
information at this hour about whether or not a fire at the JFK Library this
afternoon is related to the deadly explosions along the marathon route on
Boylston Street at the same hour. The director of the John F. Kennedy
Presidential Library and Museum told the Reporter on the scene that the 3 p.m.
fire inside the building's mechanical room was not caused by "a
device."
Tom Putnam, the director of the
JFK Library, said that the incident was confined to a mechanical room near the
archive section of the library.
Paul Yazbeck, a JFK
Library employee, said he saw a small fire and heard what he defined as
“definitely an explosion.”
Other people, who were
there to tour the library, said they had not heard an explosion.
In a press conference
around 4:30 p.m., Commissioner Ed Davis said police are not certain that the
incident is related to the Copley Square explosions, but they are treating it
as if it is related. Later, a Tweet from the BPD spokesperson seemed to clarify
that: "Update JFK incident appears to be fire related

At a press conference
with Gov. Deval Patrick, Davis was asked about any victims at the JFK Library
incident.
"None that we know
of," he said.
