Media is now identifying Boston bombing prankster as Jayvon Edson, apparently a 2007 Wakefield High grad. He's on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. He apparently left two backpacks near the Boston Marathon finish line, on the anniversary of the bombings, wearing all black and barefoot and shouting "Boston Strong". Police detonated at least one of the backpacks.
“Boston Strong “ does not sound like a threat
Check out some of the comments to the video.
WBZ-TV: “At least one of the bags was being carried by a barefoot man who was wearing a long black veil and screaming “Boston Strong.” That man has been identified as Kayvon Edson.
A source tells WBZ-TV that when Edson was stopped by police, he told them he had a rice cooker in his bag. That is when the Bomb Squad was called to the scene.
A source tells CBS News that the rice cooker in the bag was full of confetti.
Edson is charged with disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace, and possession of a hoax device.”
He sounds just fabulous.
Bad taste, a look-at-me stunt that may get him jail time, fines, etc. More of a prankster but on the anniversary of the Marathon bombings, well, just a real jerk. Also it disrupted businesses, scared people, wasted public safety money etc.
I agree but the words he yelled were not anything threatening
Shocking…not.
Has this dweeb been to the Mayah’s Mosque on Meds?
ugh!

Obviously the guy voted most likely to succeed. Think how proud they must be to have the school associated with this.
I love it.
5150 for this clown.
I didn’t read all the truck....thought it was about something else.
Richard Tisei now has competition for biggest freak from Wakefield.
I do read “Truck.”
Reading your “truck” causes me to ROTFLMAO !
Agreed. Police can’t be too careful though, even tho they could tell he’s a wacko (Ch 4 11 pm newscast said the man has “emotional issues”).
DailyMail UK says second bag was left behind by accident by a TV crew/had cameras
I understand Sloe Joe Biden said his stunt was “really worth it”.
Bastard should rot in jail for a long, long time.
