Gothamist reports that, one day after the tragic bombings at the Boston Marathon, there are now two NYPD officers stationed at the Boston Regional Intelligence Center (BRIC), the Boston Police Department's so-called fusion center. No word on what they are doing or how long they will be there.

Bloomberg told the press:

We are certainly engaged in the information flow with the FBI through our Joint Terrorism Task Force. We have two New York City police officers, police sergeants, who are in the Boston Regional Intelligence Center. They’re up there, they’ve been up there since last evening.
