Boylston Street, where the bombs exploded, is a crime scene and has been closed to traffic and pedestrians, officials said.
The blast wave from the explosions could be felt several blocks away, an eyewitness told Efe.
The blasts happened within seconds of each other, according to a Boston Herald reporter who was among the 26,000 competing in the race.
The explosions occurred shortly before 3:00 p.m. as dozens of runners were crossing the finish line near Copley Square, packed with thousands of spectators and friends and family of the competitors.
Runners still on the course were called in after the explosions and authorities evacuated two hotels in the vicinity.
