                  "In the early morning of Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers flew plans into the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia near the United States capital of Washington, D.C. A third plane crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. It is thought that the plane was intended to crash into either the White House or the Capitol in Washington, D.C. New York City’s tallest skyscraper along with the National September 11 Memorial & Museum were built on the site of the former World Trade Center buildings that were destroyed in the attack" (www.ibtimes.com).

   The 2,600 passengers in the plane were killed and there was 3,000 deaths and 6,000 injured, who were in the city at that time. Almost 300 firefighters died and when the police department was cleaning up they tried to find some people that were still alive from the attack.It was 9:59 when the first tower collapsed and then it was 10:28 when the second tower collapsed. 

When the twin towers collapsed it cached 3 more buildings on fire as well then one of the build collapsed as well.
