美国副总统拜登星期二将与波士顿地方官员一道参加波士顿马拉松致命爆炸案一周年纪念仪式。
 
按照预定计划,拜登、波士顿市长沃尔什和麻萨诸塞州州长帕特里克将在纪念仪式上发表讲话。活动组织者说,在纪念仪式上将向包括死难者家属在内的爆炸案受害者以及医务人员致敬。
 
去年,两枚炸弹在马拉松赛终点附近爆炸,造成三人死亡,250多人受伤。
 
有关当局说,塔梅兰·萨纳耶夫和焦哈尔·萨纳耶夫兄弟用自制的高压锅炸弹制造了这起爆炸案。
 
爆炸案发生后,有关当局展开搜捕,塔梅兰·萨纳耶夫在波士顿郊区与警察交火时被击毙,焦哈尔·萨纳耶夫被逮捕。
 
焦哈尔·萨纳耶夫将于今年11月受审,他被控30项罪名,如被判罪名成立,他将面临死刑。
 
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden is joining local leaders in Boston on Tuesday for a ceremony marking the one-year anniversary of the deadly bombings at the Boston Marathon.

Biden is scheduled to speak at the event along with Boston Mayor Martin Walsh and Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick.  Organizers say the tribute will honor those affected by the bombing, and include victims' families and medical staff.

Two bombs exploded near the marathon finish line last year, killing three people and wounding more than 250 others.

Authorities say brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev carried out the attack using homemade pressure cooker bombs.  

The blasts set off a multi-day manhunt that ended with Tamerlan Tsarnaev dead from a shootout with police and a bloody Dzhokhar being arrested in a Boston suburb.

Dzhokhar is due to go on trial in November on 30 federal charges and will face the death penalty.
