Q. How many of the towers were burning; one or
two?
A. One. Only one at this time.
So we went across the Brooklyn Bridge, had a
little trouble navigating through the traffic, and
finally arrived at the corner of I believe it's West
Broadway. Let me look on this map real quick. West
Broadway and Vesey.
As soon as we arrived, 84, a massive
explosion goes off, and at this point we didn't know
what it was. We thought it was a secondary explosion.
We didn't know that it was a second plane. In fact, I
didn't know there was a second plane until much later
in the evening.
An explosion goes off. I immediately tell
everyone to get out of the car and hide somewhere, go
underneath something. It's interesting because, as we
were there, there was a police car, I guess, on Vesey,
on the corner there, and some debris comes down from
whatever this explosion was, at the time we really
didn't know, and it just crushes it, I mean, crushes
the top front of the police car, which really scared me
at that point.
