BOSTON -- Boston University announced Tuesday that one of the victims killed by the blasts at the Boston Marathon on Monday has been identified as a Boston University graduate student.

The student's name has not been released, pending permission to do so from the family, the school said.

The student was one of three friends who watched the race near the finish line. Another of the three students, also a BU grad student, was injured and is in stable condition at Boston Medical Center.

The third BU student was unharmed.

Also killed were third-grader Martin Richard, 8, and restaurant manager Krystle Campbell, 29.

Some 180 others suffered injuries that included severed limbs, shrapnel wounds and abdominal lacerations.
