Extra police on duty at London Marathon

Hundreds of extra police officers were on duty at the London Marathon today following last week's bomb attack in Boston.

More than 35,000 runners took part in the race, with many wearing black ribbons.

A 30-second silence was held at the start line for the three people killed and more than 170 others injured in the Boston attack.

The Metropolitan Police said it was in close contact with the FBI and Boston Police and there was nothing to suggest any resulting threat to the London Marathon following the bomb attacks.

Extra security was in put in place around the bags of the runners, the race's baggage manager said this morning.

The bombs that went off in Boston are believed to have been placed in rucksacks placed on the route.
