Following the attack at the finish line at the Boston Marathon on Monday on Patriots Day in the city, officials and police in London are taking another look at security plans for the upcoming London Marathon, which is set to go on next Sunday.

According to ESPN.com, following the attacks in Boston, the London marathon has received extra attention from officials, as it is the next major marathon event, despite the fact that there is no specific threat on the race. As of Tuesday night, three people were confirmed dead and over 100 were injured. The bombings occurred late in the race in the afternoon and left many runners shocked and injured, as well as some victims that lost limbs.

Reports had one victim as an eight-year-old boy and had numbers at 140 people injured. The President said that whoever was responsible would be brought to justice and it shook a town that was planning to celebrate the day. The Red Sox defeated the Rays in the ninth inning and both the Celtics and Bruins were set to play but the games were cancelled and postponed.

Police and other officials have already been one edge in England after the death of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and for her funeral on Wednesday and the marathon now will be another event for them to watch closely. The origins and reasoning behind the attacks is still unknown and officials are still gathering information.

London is not unfamiliar with attacks, including in 2005 when suicide bombers attacked the city as well as in the past with Northern Ireland. The London Olympics did not have any major attacks, but the marathon could be a target now after the Boston bombing and last year it had nearly 40,000 participants. According to the report, security may be increased for the event after what happened in Boston, but nothing has been made official yet.
