Remains of 72 people found at WTC site

Source

The sifting of more than 800 cubic yards (612 cubic meters) of debris recovered from ground zero and underneath roads around the lower Manhattan site began in April and ended Friday.

The greatest number of remains – 37 – were found from material underneath West Street, a highway on the west side of ground zero. The new debris was uncovered as construction work made new parts of the site accessible.

The city began a renewed search for human remains in 2006. More than 1,800 remains have been found.

Some have been matched to previously unidentified 9/11 victims.

Looked to see if this was posted yet and didn't see a thread. Figured this news should be out there. Didn't even know there was a search going on. Glad to see they could give a few more families some closure out of a FUBAR situation.


edit - Should've been posted in Alternative Breaking News - could a mod move it please? Thanks.

Nobody has anything to say about this?

Figured I'd have at least a few people to converse with!
