Boston Comic Con cancelled due to ongoing man-hunt.

Just a few minutes ago the Boston Comic Con twitter account sent out this tweet:

"ATTENTION: Boston Comic Con has been cancelled. We will try to reschedule for a later date. Thank you for your support & understanding."

This is obviously due to the ongoing man-hunt for the Boston Marathon bombing suspect, the whole area is on Lockdown and that, obviously, would make it pretty much impossible for the convention to go ahead.

In case you don't know much info on why this man-hunt is happening, earlier this week two bombs exploded at the finish line of the Boston Marathon, Police managed to find two suspects. The police tracked them down, one suspect has been killed along with a 26 year old police officer. The second suspect is still on the loose, assumed to be armed and dangerous, and police have put most of Boston on lockdown to search for him.

Pesronally, I hope they find the murderer soon.

Update: the covention is due to be rescheduled to sometime later this year.
