Courtesy ABC.com NEW YORK, Aug. 20 While cautioning that it wasn't being called the final number, the medical examiner's office turned over a list of 2,819 victims' names to officials at City Hall to be used as part of the memorial service at the World Trade Center site. The casualty toll, estimated at more than 6,700 in the immediate aftermath of the terrorist attack on the twin towers, dropped sharply in the early accountings, then more slowly over the next six months before leveling off at 2,823 on April 22. |
