Following the Boston Marathon bombing , the phrase '' Running while Arab '' has come up on social media ( although the bombers in question were not Arab , but Chechen ) in response to the interrogation of a Saudi student who , allegedly , acted suspiciously in the vicinity of the attacks . Said suspicious behavior consisted of running away from the area of the blast , something many other people did at the time . His house was searched , but he would later be cleared by law enforcement officials
