200 human remains found at Ground Zero
More than 200 pieces of human remains have been found at the World Trade Centre site since the discovery of bones by workers clearing rubble from manholes sparked a new search a week ago, an official said on Thursday.
The Twin Towers in New York City were hit by hijacked passenger jets and collapsed on September 11, 2001, killing 2,749 people. Some 1,150 of the victims have either not been identified or not recovered.
A spokeswoman for New York's Chief Medical Examiner's Office said that on Thursday an additional nine pieces of bone were found, bringing the total for the week to 202 pieces, ranging from 1 inch to 12 inches in length.
