WTC Site to be Searched Anew After Bones Found
The city said it would search parts of the World Trade Center site again for remains of Sept. 11 dead after bones were pulled out of an abandoned manhole.
The family members of victims demanded that construction stop at ground zero until the remains of all of their loved ones were recovered. They also called for investigations into the failure to completely remove remains.
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg called an emergency meeting that included police, fire officials and the medical examiner after the discovery of bones Thursday in a manhole in the 16-acre site.
