Hey, something's up.
We have unconfirmed reports
this morning
that a plane has crashed into one of
the towers of the World Trade Center.
-Holy sh*t.
...work on this story, calling our sources
exactly what happened, but, clearly,
something relatively devastating
happening this morning there.
We're going to join
another one of our New York affiliates
for their live coverage.
Here at the top of this tower, there's
a huge, gaping hole, flames still inside.
Can you believe this?
What schmuck would fly a plane
into the Trade Center?
Maybe they ran out of gas or something.
Yeah, Colovito. Right.
Maybe some jerk-off forgot
which lever to pull on his twin-engine.
That's not a small plane.
Hell, no.
All right, listen up!
Let me have your attention here!
They're telling us it's a commuter plane.
Tower One is being evacuated
as a precaution.
They've asked us to send
a team down to assist.

Come on, everybody. Off the bus.
Get off the bus. Step this way.

That was to evacuate One Police Plaza
at the Gracie Mansion, the Municipal
Building, and any potential targets.
Who is advising this?
Central units, the mobilization point
is now South and Pike.
Yeah. No, no, I got it.
Hey, guys, you won't believe this!
My wife says the other one got hit,
the other tower.
How the hell did the other tower get hit?
and they said it.
What? Who gets their news
from HOT 97?
-I told you it was no damn private plane.
-No, I got it.
What special equipment
we got down there?
-What?
-We're prepared for everything.
Car bombs, chemical, biological,
an attack from the top.
But not this. Not for something this size.
There's no plan. We didn't make it.
Only emergency transmissions
on this frequency.
All right, all emergency personnel
respond to Vesey and West.
All emergency service units,
please go to Vesey and West.
There could be 50,
Units on West Street to use caution.
Debris is falling from the building
on West Street.
Hey! Looks like
Tower Two did take a hit.
What did I tell you?
No, no, that's the smoke blowing over
from Tower One.
All right, that's enough.
Everybody sit down. Now!
Yo, Dom, let me see your phone
for a sec, yeah?
Hey, let me see your phone.
I got to call Allison.
It's not working!
Nothing's going through.
Emergency service vehicles
are also responding.
Hey, take it easy, will you? Jesus!
-This is gonna be a b*tch.
-Relax.
Well, I'm just saying
that it looks like it's gonna...
You think they're bringing you
down there to scratch your ass?
McLoughlin will tell you what to do.
Why the Sarge?
He was Emergency Services
at the Trade Tower.
He's one of the guys who came up
with a plan after the attack in '93.
Anybody knows what to do down there,
it's him.
Command to Division One.
Does anyone over
in Tower One hear me?
Okay, make the turn on Broadway.
Go down West Broadway.
We'll meet you outside Five.
You got it.
Send everything you got
to the World Trade Center now.
We got to get that building evacuated!
Which tower?
Which tower are we responding to?
-I got to get a team to go up!
-I'll check in with headquarters.
Roll every available ambulance you got
to this position.
Fire out on the north side.
They're now coming out
of the west side
All right, everybody stay here. I'm gonna
find out what the hell's going on.
Yes, sir.
Oh, my God.
Nothing's gonna help them.
No, we'll get up there.
How are you gonna save people
that high up? It's impossible.
We got to try.
