• "In particular areas like that, federal buildings, where they would maybe be seen as a good target by someone crazy enough to do something like that, we have done some bomb-sniffing dog sweeps and that sort of thing," Daugaard told KXLG Radio in Watertown.
• Daugaard said he is angered by the Boston bombing that killed three people, including an 8-year-old boy, and injured more than 170 Monday.
• "It's so senseless. It just makes me angry," the governor told the radio station. "I'm really sorry there are people whose mental state is such they would commit evil acts like this."
• President Barack Obama has called for all flags to be flown at half-staff out of respect for the victims. Daugaard's office says the flags are to remain at half-staff until sunset Saturday.
