“I was approximately one block away from
Tower One when Tower Two appeared to explode at the roof top and several floors
below. Then fire balls and debris shot out of the windows and rocketed into the
skies and fall below.”

“As a roll call was being taken of the
responding Detectives, Tower #2 began to collapse. This occurred after a
secondary explosion on the west side of the tower that appeared to take place
in the high 60’s. The area above the secondary explosion actually leaned to the
west and then the collapse took place.”

“As I continued to wave them back
periodically you would hear a loud boom go off at the top of tower one. As the
building continued to burn and emergency equipment kept on responding stirring
up the dust and debris in the streets. After approximately 15 minutes suddenly
there was another loud boom at the upper floors, then
there was a series of smaller explosions which appeared to go completely around
the building at the upper floors. And another loud earth- shattering blast with
a large fire ball which blew out more debris and at that point everyone began
to run north on West Broad Street.”

“At that point, I heard a low sounding
boom and the smoke intensified. There was more debris falling and as I heard a
big roar, I saw Tower One coming down.”

“We kept hearing explosions that would
shake the whole room. People were saying, ‘There’s another one and another
one.’ I heard reports of secondary bomb explosions, missiles being shot at
towers and others.”

“Conditions were slow going on the
stairwell due to the volume of people. You would move two or three steps at a
time and stop. Every second or third floor would be filled with smoke that
lasted one or two floors then the stairwell would become clear. It was most
surprising that the fire alarms and strobe lights were not activated."

“At some point we could hear another plane
then a hit. Then what sounded like explosions one after another or like a train
coming fast. At this point the explosion was loud; the area went completely
black.”

“Massive amounts of debris, concrete dust
and bodies or parts were more frequent at this point. Then there was an eerie
silence and it was like you knew something was going to happen. There just
seemed to be one explosion after another. I was separated from the guys from
the bridge (GWB) by another explosion, massive again, sucking the air out of
your lungs and then just a wind more intense this time with larger pieces of
debris flying.”

“We continued our efforts until the
combination of dust, smoke and secondary explosions along with reports of gas
main leaks, bombs, small arms fire and buildings about to collapse forced us to
again relocate further north on West Street.”
