P01.V52.I4 black cyan A direct effect P ark Spanish teacher Joy Esboldt finished running the Boston Marathon shortly before the bombs exploded. At the time of the explosion, Esboldt was being treated in the medical tent, only a block away and watched as medics wheeled in blast victims. The Echo covered this story because the incident at the Boston Marathon directly affected members of the Park Community, both in St. Louis Park and in Boston at the time of the explosions. The article was also meant to report Esboldt’s story as most students were not aware she was in Boston at the time. In addition, after experiencing a number of deaths in the Park community recently, the impact of the bombings especially resonated among staff and students.
