I got to go visit the California Wildlife Center on telling 7 00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:50.960 you about that at five thirty five. But here's what's ahead on the wake 8 00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:55.799 up call. The names of nearly three thousand people killed will be read and 9 00:00:55.880 --> 00:01:00.200 bells will toll at the World Trade Center Memorial in Manhattan to mark the twenty 10 00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.599 second anniversary of the nine to eleven terrorist attacks. A man's been arrested in 11 00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.480 connection with the deadly stabbing at a metro station in Los Angeles. Police say 12 00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.640 the thirty one year old man was arrested on Saturday night in Vermont, Nolls 13 00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:17.920 and is being held on two million dollars bail in connection with the stabbing. 14 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:22.840 On September seventh, Russia and North Korea have confirmed that North Korean leader Kim 15 00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:26.280 Jong UN will be visiting Russia in the coming days. According to the Kremlin, 16 00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:30.959 Russia wants weapons for its war in Ukraine. North Korea wants the money 17 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.680 before we get started. I want to take a look back at twenty two 18 00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:47.959 years ago today, I remember exactly where I was at five forty six am, 19 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.799 and it's twenty two years later and it's still emotional. Isn't it a 20 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.040 fun way to start the day getting all emotional? But I mean, it 21 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.959 really did change our lives. On the morning of September eleventh, nineteen, 22 00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:07.599 Al Kaita terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes. The first plane crashed into the North 23 00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:09.400 Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. That was at five 24 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:15.120 forty five am our time. Sixteen minutes later, the second plane hit the 25 00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:21.240 South tower. A third plane smashed into the Pentagon. The last plane likely 26 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:25.280 destined for the Capitol, but instead it crashed into a field in Shanksville, 27 00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:32.039 Pennsylvania, after passengers fought back and stopped the hijackers, losing their lives in 28 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:38.680 the process. Almost three thousand people from ninety three company countries lost their lives 29 00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:44.759 that day. It was the worst attack on US soil since Pearl Harbor in 30 00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:47.280 nineteen forty one, and I mentioned I knew I was where I was. 31 00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:53.360 I was sitting in a control room at a radio station in Portland, Oregon, 32 00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:55.719 when the first plane hit and We're like, oh wow, what was 33 00:02:55.759 --> 00:03:00.879 that? Something crashed into the World Trade Center And immediate at my morning show 34 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:02.919 co host was like, it's a terrorist attack, and I was like, 35 00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.280 no, let's not go there yet. It's probably just a small plane. 36 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.159 It was probably just a little accident. And in the next fifteen minutes, 37 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:15.759 then the second plane hit and then we went, Okay, something's really going 38 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:20.520 on, and but we still didn't know. We were three thousand miles away. 39 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.360 And then we watched as the events unfolded throughout that morning and it was 40 00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:32.280 just it was shocking and horrifying, and I'm I think that it brought us 41 00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:37.960 together in a way that we haven't been brought together in almost forever. And 42 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:43.199 I wonder what would happen if the terrorist at attacks happened today? Would we 43 00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:46.960 be able to come together like we did at that time? And I know, 44 00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:52.240 Kno, you were thirteen when that happened, Yeah, about to be 45 00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:57.759 thirteen twelve in eighth grade, so you remember it, though because and you 46 00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:01.039 have a very tight connection to K five on the day of those attacks because 47 00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.680 you heard about it and then you headed off to school and then what happened. 48 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:08.439 Yeah, so we had to wake up early. Where our middle school, 49 00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.479 you know, it was like twenty five thirty minutes away, four kids, 50 00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.240 so we had to get up early. My brother was watching TV, 51 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.040 which the TV is never on that early in the morning. It was you 52 00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.079 know, five forty five, six o'clock in the morning. Yeah, so 53 00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:23.720 and then in our head it's just like, oh, something No, I 54 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:25.839 don't want to dumb it down to like a high speed chase, but like, 55 00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:28.079 oh, something's happening on the news. But that's what it was. 56 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:30.240 I mean, we didn't know at that point. We were like, oh, 57 00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.680 what was it. Oh maybe it's the little cessna crashed into towers or 58 00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:35.439 something like that. So then you know, my mom gets us into the 59 00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:40.120 car, get off to school, and about halfway there we're listening to KFI. 60 00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:44.560 We weren't allowed to touch the radio, so it was on, of 61 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:48.360 course, and he's the one that let us know that the towers fell. 62 00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:54.160 Halfway through going to school and we I mean, at thirteen, I didn't 63 00:04:54.160 --> 00:05:00.560 know them yeah, but my mom was letting us know, like, you 64 00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.319 guys are gonna be hearing about this all day. This is a very big 65 00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:08.040 deal. So even getting to school, it was like it was just a 66 00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:13.639 weird, eerie feeling through like the teachers understood, right, So everything was 67 00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:15.759 kind of it felt like a pause, like that day was paused in a 68 00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:19.720 sense. Yeah, And because I was then, I was again. I 69 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:21.959 was up in Port Lenore and I wasn't down where you guys are now, 70 00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.720 but I was on the air that whole day because we just didn't know what 71 00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:30.000 to do, and I worked for a country music station. We stopped the 72 00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:32.720 music and we just talked because everybody was just so shocked. Were like, 73 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.079 how could this happen? What's going on? And then, like you said, 74 00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:41.399 watching and hearing about the tower, the first tower coming down, and 75 00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:47.920 then watching as the second one came down, and it just like rocked us 76 00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:55.319 to our core, and it just it's frustrating because I think a lot of 77 00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:58.519 us have forgotten, or there's a lot of people who were so young when 78 00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:03.639 it happened, they don't know, they don't understand, and that concerns me. 79 00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:06.360 Yeah, I do remember, our teachers are actually a few of them, 80 00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:10.759 we didn't do anything. They just had the TV on. Yeah, 81 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:13.920 this is what we're doing today. Like made it a point to make sure 82 00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.439 that this is important. I believe. I even have a paper that was 83 00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:21.480 maybe the day after, but it was like a memorium of nine to eleven 84 00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:25.720 where on the back of it they wanted us to write down like where we 85 00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.600 were at at our age. So I still have that of where we were 86 00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:32.000 in our recollection at that age of what actually happened and how it went down. 87 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.600 And I do still have that paper actually and hold on to it. 88 00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:40.560 Yeah. It's one of those moments that you know, they say there are 89 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.120 moments in your lives that you will always remember exactly where you were, what 90 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:46.680 you were doing, and I'll that's one of them. And I hope we 91 00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:51.959 do remember. I think it's important to remember because when we forgot, we 92 00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:58.959 are destined to repeat. So we're gonna take a little break. It's not 93 00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.399 all going to be. It's a day of memorial of the almost three thousand 94 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.959 people lost that day, So we do want to remember and look back, 95 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.600 but we also want to move forward. And before we get into some of 96 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.680 the stories that we're following, in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Of 97 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.680 course, we're talking about nine to eleven. It's twenty two years since that 98 00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:24.800 day when our world's all changed, and we're still remembering, we're still honoring 99 00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:30.959 those lost that day. Several ceremonies and remembrances are being held around the Los 100 00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:34.639 Angeles area. LA Mayor baths and police chief more are going to ring ten 101 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:42.759 bells during a ceremony at nine am at the Frank Hodgkin Memorial Training Center near 102 00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.199 Dodger Stadium in Long Beach.

And sort of interesting, there's an artifact from the Ground Zero site 106 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.120 that's at fire Station one on Seventh Street in Santa Monica. It is open 107 00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:09.879 for viewing by the public on business days. There's also an informal ceremony this 108 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:16.000 morning at Beverly Hills Fire Department. Hawthorne at City Hall is doing a ceremony 109 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.240 this morning.

It's already underway. 113 00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.559 It started at five am at the Historic Civic Center. City representatives and 114 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:46.919 others will be standing among a miniature field of flags representing the twenty nine hundred 115 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:50.679 seventy seven people killed on nine eleven, two thousand and one, and over 116 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:56.360 roughly the next three hours, attendees will be reading the names of all those 117 00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:01.279 who were killed on nine to eleven. Let's get started with some of the 118 00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:05.200 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Russia and North Korea 119 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.960 have confirmed North Korean leader Kim John Un will visit Russia in the coming days. 120 00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:15.240 South Korea media reported the meeting could happen as early as tomorrow. US 121 00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:20.080 officials say Russian President Putin may be looking for weapons and ammunition to use in 122 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.279 Ukraine. White House National Security spokesman John Kirby says no one should be helping 123 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.600 Russia. There will be repercussions should North Korea decide to go ahead and consummate 124 00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:31.600 this arms deal. Again, we haven't seen them do that yet, but 125 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.480 if they move ahead, there will be additional repercussions for North Korea. The 126 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.080 international community and the United States will look for ways to hold them accountable for 127 00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:43.200 that. Officials say North Korea could be looking for energy and food aid and 128 00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.519 also advanced weapons technologies. Smash and grab robbers have hit the north Ridge Fashion 129 00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:52.559 Center, Oh Boy another one. The group of five or six men stole 130 00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:56.039 about twenty thousand dollars worth of perfume from the Macy's yesterday at about eleven o'clock 131 00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:01.600 in the morning. At least say the robbers ran in through the store doors 132 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.960 and used hammers to smash cases. They wore black hoodies. A black Infinity 133 00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:09.440 without a license plate was seen leaving them all. Just a couple weeks ago, 134 00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:13.240 a Macy's and Sherman Oaks was trashed and ropped, and arrest has been 135 00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:18.039 made in connection with the deadly stabbing at a Metro red line station in downtown 136 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:22.919 LA. A guy named Randy Nash was arrested on Saturday, the stabbing happened 137 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:28.679 Thursday afternoon. Police say it was an unprovoked attack. A man has been 138 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:31.799 shot while meditating on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood. Police say the man 139 00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:37.600 was on the sidewalk just before three thirty yesterday morning when a guy walked up 140 00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:39.799 and shot him at least once. The shooter ran off. The man injured 141 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:43.840 was taken to the hospital. Police they say they believed the shooting was random 142 00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:50.000 and that the guy shot was not homeless. Police in Morocco how are people 143 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.120 in Morocco rather have been sleeping in the streets for three nights now because of 144 00:10:54.159 --> 00:11:01.559 the magnitude six point eight earthquake that hit Marrakesh. ABC's and wins as soldiers 145 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:07.039 and international aid teams and trucks and helicopters have begun to go into remote mountain 146 00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.960 town's hit hardest by the earthquake. This father saying he and his family were 147 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:16.840 at home when the earthquake hit, but his eight year old son never made 148 00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:22.039 it out. At least seventeen aftershocks, including a magnitude four point five tremor 149 00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:28.279 for their damaging buildings. More than twenty one hundred people have been killed and 150 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:33.919 that number is expected to rise. We're going to check in now with ABC's 151 00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:39.399 Aaron Katurski. Good morning, Aaron. It's twenty two years after nine to 152 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.120 eleven, and people are still dying from what happened that day. They sure 153 00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:48.759 are in numbers that are greater than the toll on some of the first responders 154 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:54.679 that day. Three hundred forty three firefighters were killed on nine eleven, three 155 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:58.519 hundred thirty one since in the twenty two years since, so nearly the same 156 00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:05.120 twenty three police officers that day, three hundred and sixty in the last twenty 157 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:09.919 two years from nine eleven related illnesses, cancers, and long ailments. So 158 00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.639 so the horror of the day, the terror of the day, is still 159 00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:20.240 being lived and deeply felt by many in the community, and New York City 160 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:26.679 is commemorating those people as they pass away. Twenty two years later, on 161 00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.919 I believe it was Friday, they added more names to the Trade Center memorial. 162 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.480 The Fire Department added names to its its memorial wall, which is this 163 00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:43.080 wall outside its headquarters in Brooklyn, and those names then added, you know, 164 00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:50.000 to the nine eleven memorial here because their their deaths have been it's been 165 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:56.639 decided we're directly the result of what happened here, and it's a weird So 166 00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:01.840 you die so publicly on nine eleven, but then you know it's just been 167 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:05.519 an anguished death for many others who have lived, you know, unable to 168 00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:09.919 properly breathe, or with cancers, and you know, not really knowing why. 169 00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:15.600 And you hear these incredible stories of healthy young firefighters that just out of 170 00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:18.799 nowhere suddenly became thick, and you know, you realize it's because of what 171 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:26.519 they were breathing in as they fought furiously to try and find others, rescue 172 00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:31.279 others, or then you know, very quickly recover others in the wreckage of 173 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:35.960 what had been known as the pile. And that's going to that toll is 174 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:39.360 going to continue for many more years to come, and how long I remember 175 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:43.919 after everything came down. I think one of the most astounding things about nine 176 00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.240 to eleven was we were talking about earlier how everybody just came together, and 177 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:52.639 we don't even begin to understand the enormity of that here in Los Angeles, 178 00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:58.039 because we weren't in New York City. As people rushed into help and and 179 00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:03.440 that sort of political unit I think is probably unimaginable at this stage of our 180 00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:07.919 you know, of our civic life. But there was uh, you know, 181 00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:11.000 firefighters and police officers from all over the country came here to try and 182 00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:16.200 help. And and and you know, the country really experienced an outpouring up 183 00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:22.360 emotion. For New York and for the country. Uh, baseball became a 184 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.840 thing, The Yankees became a thing. It was really it was an interesting 185 00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:30.519 moment. And then a lot of that proved you know, rather fleeting as 186 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:35.200 as you know, other you know, political concerns took over and and but 187 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:39.600 it did show the best of our impulses. In some cases, it may 188 00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.919 have shown darker impulses too. And and you know, our capacities for launching 189 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.759 wars that some believe were justified, some don't still a matter of debate. 190 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:52.360 So it's a really complicated day. But at bottom, it's at just the 191 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:58.080 data, remember the people, And that's why the ceremonies is so focused on 192 00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:03.000 the names and the family. Well, and I'm glad that they're doing that. 193 00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.039 I hope we continue to focus on those people who lost their lives and 194 00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:11.159 continue to and I'm going to continue my pledge to never forget thank you again. 195 00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:16.120 Aaron Katurski for taking the time this morning. Here's what we're following in 196 00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:18.960 the KFI twenty four hour news room. Of course, it is the twenty 197 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.559 second anniversary of the nine to eleven attacks on the World Trade Centers, the 198 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.080 Pentagon, and of course the plane that went down in Shanksville, Tennessee. 199 00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:31.039 It's being marked with several ceremonies around the Southland, and of course in New 200 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.759 York City. The Macy's at Northridge Fashion Centers become the latest target of smash 201 00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:41.120 and grab robbers. Up to six people with hammers wearing hoodies stole about twenty 202 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:43.039 thousand dollars worth of perfume yesterday morning, then hopped in a car and drove 203 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.600 off before police got there. About twenty five hundred people came out to celebrate 204 00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.919 the Little League World Series champions from El Segundo. The parade through downtown El 205 00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.840 Segundo yesterday wrapped up several celebrations that included honors at Dodgers Stadium, Angel Stadium, 206 00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:02.639 and at LA Memorial Coliseum. At Saturday is USC Stanford Game. Let's 207 00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:07.360 say good morning now to ABC's Karen Travers. We're gonna start with how President 208 00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:10.360 Biden is marking this nine to eleven. Then we'll backtrack to what he's been 209 00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:12.240 up to for the past couple of days. What's he doing today, Karen, 210 00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:17.399 Yeah, the President right now is traveling from Vietnam to Alaska, where 211 00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:19.879 he's going to meet with and deliver remarks before more than a thousand service members, 212 00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.799 first responders, and their families at a military base. That's going to 213 00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:27.240 come up later this afternoon or early evening our time. Okay, and this, 214 00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:32.039 I know I've heard lots of talk about that he's not in New York 215 00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:37.840 City for the nine to eleven commemorations. Is a scheduling thing or do we 216 00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:42.159 know why that decision was made. Presidents don't always go to New York City 217 00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:45.360 for nine to eleven. In the past, some have monthed at the White 218 00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:49.320 House or at the Pentagon. I traveled with President Trump to Pennsylvania to the 219 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.080 Shanksville Memorial, So it's not always a traditional thing every year to go to 220 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:56.440 New York City. The Vice president is traveling to New York today, show 221 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:02.200 mark the anniversary at the September eleventh more in Lower Manhattan. Okay, So 222 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:04.440 now let's back up to what he's been up to. For the past couple 223 00:17:04.519 --> 00:17:10.680 of days he was at the G twenty summit. Anything interesting, revolutionary or 224 00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:14.400 shattering come out of that, you know. The big thing I think was 225 00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:18.359 the effort by the administration to try to counter China's influence in the region. 226 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:19.799 A lot of talk about that. That was what most of the questions at 227 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.559 the president's press conference focused on, and the fact that China's President Gi was 228 00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:27.079 not there. President did meet with his number two, it's the deputy from 229 00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:32.240 China who was at the summit. And then today yesterday in Vietnam, the 230 00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:37.000 President announcing a new partnership with the Vietnamese government. Very significant, of course, 231 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.400 less than fifty years after the end of the Vietnam War. But there 232 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:45.119 are some critics who are pushing back because China is excuse me, Vietnam is 233 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.359 a one party communist state, in questions about their human rights record, and 234 00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:55.559 criticizing the administration for this new strategic partnership and elevation of diplomatic ties. So 235 00:17:55.680 --> 00:18:00.440 is this the first like official partnership we've had with Vietnam. Ever, it's 236 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:03.960 just a changing of it, so of elevating them up the list to a 237 00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:08.960 higher level of diplomatic relations. Okay. And and then I also I saw 238 00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:14.640 the President talking about that he didn't meet with Shijing Paydon because he wasn't there, 239 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:18.359 and he said, it's okay, We'll be meeting soon. Yeah, 240 00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:22.759 And there's no date yet steps for that. The White House has said that 241 00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:25.559 it will come at some point. The President has he hopes to have it 242 00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:29.559 happened soon. It maybe in the fall, maybe in November at its summit 243 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:33.880 in eight San Francisco of Asian Pacific leaders. But the President has said it's 244 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.319 not a crisis that the two are not talking directly, that the two governments 245 00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.759 have been engaged. It's not that there is a complete freeze out between the 246 00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.839 US and China, okay. And it's probably too soon because we just got 247 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:51.279 this information that the Kremlin and North Korea have confirmed that Kim Jong un is 248 00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:55.240 headed to Russia to meet with Putin. Has the White House made any statements 249 00:18:55.279 --> 00:18:57.920 about that yet, not yet. Today. We've asked now that we have 250 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:00.960 confirmation about that meeting, that we will have to get back to you guys 251 00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:03.759 on that. Okay, thanks so much for your time this morning, Karen, 252 00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.279 appreciate it as always, touch you soon. All right, let's get 253 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:10.720 back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newser 254 00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:14.559 Memorials are being held across the US to mark the twenty two years since the 255 00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:18.079 September eleventh attacks that killed nearly three thousand people in New York, Washington, 256 00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:22.279 DC, and Pennsylvania. A ceremony in Manhattan will include a moment of silence 257 00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:26.759 at eight forty six am their time this morning. It's five forty six hour 258 00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:30.640 time when the first hijacked plane hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center. 259 00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:36.640 ABC's Derek Wallace's Vice president Harris will be there in place of President Biden. 260 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:41.119 He is marking the occasion in Anchorage, Alaska, at a military base 261 00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.599 there. Last week, forty three names were added to the World Trade Center 262 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:49.960 Memorial Wall, commemorating firefighters, paramedics, and civilian staff members who have died 263 00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:56.039 from illnesses related to rescue and recovery efforts. The owner of a bicycle shop 264 00:19:56.039 --> 00:20:00.359 in Irwindale says thieves have stolen about forty thousand dollars worth of merchandise. The 265 00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:03.559 owners of Irwindale Cycles say the intruders knew exactly what they were looking for when 266 00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:07.240 they hit two weeks ago. The breaking happen in the early morning. Five 267 00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:12.400 people in masks were seen using an angle grinder to cut through the steel security 268 00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:18.279 bag gate. The bicycles taken were each more worth more than seventeen hundred dollars. 269 00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:23.039 Governor Newsom says he would not appoint any of the candidates running to replace 270 00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:29.079 Democratic Senator Diane Feinstein if she stepped down before her term ends, which it's 271 00:20:29.119 --> 00:20:33.000 completely unfair to the Democrats that have worked their tail off. That primary is 272 00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:36.799 just a matter of months away. I don't want to tip the balance of 273 00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:40.880 that. Newsom made the comments on Meet the Press. Supporters of Congresswoman Barbara 274 00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:45.200 Lee, who's black, believed she was Newsom's first choice to fill a potential 275 00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.039 vacancy, but she's running for the seat. She's trailing in the polls behind 276 00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:56.160 Democratic congress members Adam Schiff and Katie Porter. Spanish Soccer Federation president Louis ruby 277 00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:00.759 Alice has resigned for kissing a player on the lips when Spain won the Women's 278 00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:04.839 World Cup for the first time. Player Jenny Hermoso said it was without her 279 00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:11.599 consent. Prosecutors presented their case for potential criminal charges against ruby Alis on Friday 280 00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:15.200 to Spain's National Court in Madrid. One of the most active volcanoes in the 281 00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:21.000 world has begun to erupt after a two month pause. The Hawaii Volcano Observatory 282 00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:26.799 says the eruption was seen yesterday afternoon at the summit of Kilauea. The volcano's 283 00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:30.440 alert level was raised to warning status and the aviation color code winter red as 284 00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:37.920 scientists evaluate the eruption and related hazards. Kilauea erupted for several weeks in June. 285 00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:41.119 When we come back, I was out and about this weekend. I 286 00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:47.039 got to visit the California Wildlife Center. It rescues and rehabilitates thousands of injured 287 00:21:47.079 --> 00:21:48.920 and orphan animals each year, and we're going to tell you more about that. 288 00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:52.880 This weekend, I was out and about and with my buddy Nick Poliochini, 289 00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:56.960 we got to visit the California Wildlife Center. I got to catch up 290 00:21:57.079 --> 00:22:02.960 with Jennifer Brandt. She's the executive director and the person we most need to 291 00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:07.160 talk to about this incredibly fabulous organization that I will tell you it's like this 292 00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:12.200 secret, hidden place where they save lives and not lives of people. We're 293 00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:15.960 talking about wild animals, so tell us what you do here as California Wildlife 294 00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.680 Center, so we focus on the rehabilitation and rescue of native California animals. 295 00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:25.279 We have three main departments. We have Marine Mammals and they go out to 296 00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:30.119 the beaches in Malibu and rescue sea lions, seals, turtles, pin of 297 00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:33.200 heads, cetaceans. Then we have our OCU which is where we are now, 298 00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:37.759 which is all of our baby animals, and our i SU which is 299 00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:40.960 where all our sick and injured animals are. So if you find a native 300 00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:44.160 animal who needs help, we are the people to go to. Okay, 301 00:22:44.200 --> 00:22:47.759 So if you find like an animal that has been abandoned, or maybe it's 302 00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:51.839 been hit by a car or exactly, some of the most common reasons that 303 00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:56.079 the animals come here is orphaned, that's the number one most common. But 304 00:22:56.200 --> 00:23:03.200 hit by a car, suffering from redenna side poisoning, being shot at unfortunately 305 00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:08.119 is a common reason. Or caught by a domestic animals so a cat or 306 00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:12.000 dog, okay. And behind us we have the little squirrels, which are 307 00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:18.799 absolutely adorable, but they are wild animals. So when you come and you're 308 00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:22.799 dealing with these animals, there's not a lot of like lovey human interaction with 309 00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.519 them because you want them to be wild, right, that's one of the 310 00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:30.799 challenges. I think it's the hardest thing for staff and volunteers is to not 311 00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:33.960 treat them like pets. So we don't allow our staff or volunteers to speak 312 00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:37.839 to them. We don't want them to make contact. It's very important that 313 00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:41.559 these animals are not habituated, that they can be released back into the wild 314 00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:45.640 and live a wild life. Absolutely okay, And down in the is this 315 00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:48.839 what did you call this? The This is the OUs Orphan care unit. 316 00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:55.240 There are some pigeons and some are there doubs down. Yeah, there's morning 317 00:23:55.319 --> 00:23:57.680 doves. There's bantil pigeons, which are actually a native pigeon. They usually 318 00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:03.960 live in the woodlands. Some housefinches, goldfinches, probably some mockingbirds. I 319 00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:07.200 think there's a black headed cowbird over there. So we actually in total care 320 00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.680 for over one hundred and seventy different species here. And last year, how 321 00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.039 many animals did you we help? Slightly over four thousand. We receive about 322 00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:19.839 thirty five thousand calls a year from people who find animals and need help, 323 00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:23.720 and we asked them to text a photo because we want to make sure it's 324 00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:29.519 a native animal, and then we either accept the animal or we give them 325 00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:32.640 resources if it's not an animal that we care for. Here, okay, 326 00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:34.960 and I want to talk about rodentiside for just one second, because I was 327 00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:38.440 reading you sent a picture of the animal of the week, and what was 328 00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:42.640 happening is some of these animals, like you had a great horned owl, 329 00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:48.119 and the great hornell came in and was very sick and not doing well and 330 00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:49.680 is a success story because he looks like he's doing great now, but what 331 00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:55.079 happened to him? So what happens is people use rodentisides in their homes and 332 00:24:55.200 --> 00:25:00.400 there's second generation rodenticides that are the most common right now, and they poison 333 00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:03.359 the animal, but it doesn't kill them right away. It's not like a 334 00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:06.880 mouse trap, so those rodents can go out of the house. They're weak, 335 00:25:07.160 --> 00:25:11.559 they're not as active as they normally be, so they're great gray exactly. 336 00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:18.680 So our owls are hawks, coyotes, bobcats, all of those animals 337 00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:23.880 are picking up those the rodents and eating them, and then they get an 338 00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:27.880 amalgamation of all those poisons in their blood. It thins their blood because that's 339 00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:33.480 what a rodenna side does, and it's an anticoagulant, and even a tiny 340 00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:37.480 scratch smaller than a millimeter, a bird like a great horn owl could bleed 341 00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:41.039 out. So when they come here, we're able to treat them and then 342 00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:45.359 we release them. But we do ask the people, not your rodenna sides, 343 00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:48.319 that they practice exclusion. So the best best way to get rid of 344 00:25:48.400 --> 00:25:52.559 rodents is to never have them in your house. So that means sealing all 345 00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:57.440 of the places that they might have crawled in and planting thoughtfully and not letting 346 00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:00.400 the rodents come in in the first place. Yeah. One of our tour 347 00:26:00.480 --> 00:26:06.200 guides or educators that we were talking to earlier said, what you guys focus 348 00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:08.480 on is coexistence because we all live here, we all got to short share 349 00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.920 the space. So how can people help because I'm sure that nobody. The 350 00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:15.480 money doesn't grow on trees for you. Yes, right. We do not 351 00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:18.920 receive any sustaining government funding. Okay, so of course we love donations. 352 00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:22.759 We are open three hundred and sixty five days a year. We do not 353 00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:26.160 charge for any of our services, so of course we love that, and 354 00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:32.480 we also are always looking for new volunteers. We are primarily volunteer run organizations. 355 00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:36.039 So we use volunteers for cleaning, for feeding, for caring for all 356 00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:38.079 of these animals, and we could not do it without their help. Okay. 357 00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:42.240 And if they want to make a donation get more information about the California 358 00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:45.240 Wildlife Center, where do they go? They can visit our website see a 359 00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:49.960 wildlife dot org. We have our instagram is at Sea Wildlife. We have 360 00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:53.440 a TikTok, we have Facebook, all the regular socials. Okay, great 361 00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:56.440 saving lives. It's a wonderful thing. Thank you, thank you, Jennifer. 362 00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.960 Yeah, it was a really really cool experience. This California Wildlife Center 363 00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:06.000 is kind of tucked away in the hills, so it's not really it's not 364 00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:08.480 like there's a big sign saying hey here's the California Wildlife Center and they take 365 00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:14.599 in animals every single day. We saw a couple being dropped off as we 366 00:27:14.599 --> 00:27:18.759 were taking our tour of the facility, and you know, she was mentioning 367 00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.680 they've got little tiny things. They've got squirrels and birds, and they also 368 00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:25.799 had a bobcap up there, but again we didn't get to see it because 369 00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:29.559 they're rehabilitating it. They're keeping an eye on it. They have cameras on 370 00:27:29.599 --> 00:27:33.279 and stuff, but they're rehabilitating it so it can be released back into the 371 00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:36.680 wild and they have deer there. And then we did get to see the 372 00:27:37.119 --> 00:27:38.880 sea lions and if you want to check out one of the sea lions who 373 00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:42.799 was totally trying to steal the show at Amy K King on my Instagram and 374 00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:48.759 also at KFI AM six forty. That was very cool. They're very social, 375 00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.119 so we were actually able to see them, but again wild animals and 376 00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:56.440 they're being released on a regular basis, which is great after their nurse back 377 00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:02.039 to help or to health. If you are interested in donating or volunteering again, 378 00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:07.440 they would love for you to get involved. It's c a Wildlife dot 379 00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.400 org. When we come back, we're gonna be talking to again ABC's Tom 380 00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:18.240 Rivers about that American stranded three thousand feet down in a cave in Turkey. 381 00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:21.519 But there is a development and it looks like he's on his way up, 382 00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:25.400 so we're going to find out the latest on that. Let's say good morning 383 00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:30.880 now to ABC's Tom Rivers. Tom. An American is stranded three thousand feet 384 00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:33.720 down in a cave in Turkey, but there's some good news that he's finally 385 00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:37.440 coming back up exactly. I mean, we've got our team on the ground 386 00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:42.480 now in Turkey and this thing's been boiling for a few days. It involves 387 00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:48.920 this forty year old American Mark Dickie, expedition leader in the It's called the 388 00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:53.720 Mark Cave District in southern Turkey. It's it's part of the Taurus Mountains. 389 00:28:53.759 --> 00:28:57.720 Down there, said to be the third deepest cave in the world. H 390 00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:03.000 and there we're down about three thousand, four hundred feet. He developed internal 391 00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:07.960 bleeding. So then over the days that followed, he started coughing of blood. 392 00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:11.240 On the second of September, they sent down medication, but he was 393 00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:15.640 prone and they didn't really know, you know, what to do. The 394 00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:18.839 rescue teams thought about it for a while and they said, we will stretch 395 00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:22.200 him out, but it will take some time. That began on Saturday, 396 00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:26.039 and it's been a slow, laborious process. The laced up day we've gotten 397 00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:32.000 from Anchor from the state disaster Management team there is that he could possibly be 398 00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:36.039 out as early as later today. So keep watching that one. But it's 399 00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:37.799 gonna be one heck of a story when he gets out, no kidding. 400 00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:45.000 So he's been down there since August thirty first incorrect, He are they saying 401 00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:48.799 what caused the internal bleeding? Is that like an ulcer or they don't know 402 00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.319 yet that they don't know yet, and you know, fingers crossed it. 403 00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:56.680 We have gotten reports now that his situation is stabilized, but he can't obviously 404 00:29:56.839 --> 00:30:02.799 use his own power to get out, so in essence that stretching every every 405 00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:07.759 inch, he's being pulled up with pulleys and almost two hundred teams or excuse 406 00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:11.440 me, two hundred members from teams from eight countries are there to assist. 407 00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.240 So it's it's a big, big group effort. But yeah, it's going 408 00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:18.359 to be one heck of a story when he gets out. The plan is 409 00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:23.680 for him to get local metal medical attention there and then probably be transferred over 410 00:30:23.759 --> 00:30:30.839 to Istanbul for more complete examination and treatment there. And this guy's he's an 411 00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:37.440 experienced he's a cave diver. I don't know what he's he's a caver, 412 00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.240 yeah, he's he's been around the block. And but one of those things, 413 00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:44.519 you know, if you if you, for whatever reason you get internal 414 00:30:44.519 --> 00:30:48.960 bleeding and you can't move, what are you gonna do? Over the weekend. 415 00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:52.400 You know, we're following this thing, and uh said to be an 416 00:30:52.440 --> 00:30:57.880 experienced individual with his own power down at thirty four hundred feet normally it would 417 00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:02.640 take you about fifty hours to get to the surface. And at that time 418 00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:04.920 they said, look, we're gonna stretcher this thing. And the difficult thing 419 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:08.640 as well, there's some narrow passages or you and I could crouch through and 420 00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:11.000 work our way that no, no, no, out with a stretcher. 421 00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:15.720 You gotta get these other rescue guys to chip away at the edges enough to 422 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.960 get the stretcher in him through that you know, narrow bottleneck if you will, 423 00:31:21.240 --> 00:31:25.039 and then proceed up up toward the surface. But as I say, 424 00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:29.000 the latest update nine hundred feet down, it seems like a lot, but 425 00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:32.200 it's a lot better than it was. And that was an updated about two 426 00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:33.960 or three hours ago. So who knows. He may be filling the blank 427 00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:38.880 seven hundred feet below the surface as we speak. Okay, so you're giving 428 00:31:38.880 --> 00:31:45.359 me the heeb gbs just talking about like trying to get through those small spaces, 429 00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:49.839 just like my clustrophobia kind of kicks in exactly. Yeah, And so 430 00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:53.359 he's got to do They take him off the stretcher for certain areas, or 431 00:31:53.400 --> 00:32:00.400 they literally are using tools to chip away the side of the cave. We 432 00:32:00.680 --> 00:32:02.119 we haven't got the detail work on that. I think it's probably most more 433 00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:06.200 of the latter. But if they did find a place where they could not 434 00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:08.079 you know, or they felt it was unsafe to move things, they may 435 00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:13.400 well have to take them off the stretcher and then you know, somehow just 436 00:32:13.480 --> 00:32:16.599 you know, without trying to do any more injury, get him through that 437 00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:21.640 passage. We've fold up the stretcher and then uh, you know, deploy 438 00:32:21.680 --> 00:32:23.319 it again on the other side of the bottleneck. But yeah, it's gonna 439 00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:27.319 be It's gonna be a made for TV movie, I think down the road, 440 00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:29.440 that's exactly what I was thinking. I was like, you know that 441 00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:34.400 it's reminding me of the Chilean thirty or thirty three. Yep, that was 442 00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:37.720 a fabulous movie. Just what a story that was. And then even baby 443 00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:40.960 Jessica remember her, she got down that well oh yes, yes, yes, 444 00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:43.880 yes, yes, yes, yes, yes exactly. I mean she 445 00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:45.400 was like twenty feet down, so it's not quite as big, but it 446 00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:50.359 kind of caught the world's attention. Yeah, the Chilean when when my former 447 00:32:50.359 --> 00:32:53.759 colleagues, Jeffrey Kaufman, was was covering that for for many many days. 448 00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:58.039 Yeah. So, yes, we've we've had precedents in the past, and 449 00:32:58.119 --> 00:33:00.440 you want to just you know, crawl your fingers and say, let's get 450 00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:05.079 let's get this guy to the surface and then everybody can breathe a sigh of 451 00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:07.039 relief. No kidding. So you said that there's like two hundred people working 452 00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:09.720 on it. How many people do we know? How many people are actually 453 00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:14.039 down in the cave? We don't know exactly. No, but again, 454 00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:16.599 it's a big effort from from eight different countries. So and as I say, 455 00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:21.240 this didn't happen overnight, they've had weeks or actually more than a week 456 00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:22.839 to plan this and saying, how are we going to do this? Okay, 457 00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:25.880 this is the plan. How are we going to deploy our personnel, 458 00:33:27.000 --> 00:33:30.160 et cetera, et cetera, And then let's go for it. Let's and 459 00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:32.640 that was it. The starting on Saturday, Saturday morning, they said, 460 00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:37.559 okay, the process begins. Okay. And was he caving by himself or 461 00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.440 did he have a group with him? He was leading a group exactly, 462 00:33:40.519 --> 00:33:43.960 Oh okay, and so has the rest of the group come up or did 463 00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:45.960 they stay down with him? Oh, that's a good question. I would 464 00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:51.279 assume most of them probably got out, but again maybe a couple stayed around 465 00:33:51.440 --> 00:33:54.559 until we've reached the point now where this is a large, large rescue operation 466 00:33:54.640 --> 00:34:00.319 where you know, people of of high quality of expertise are down there and 467 00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:04.599 they probably have the other explorers saying okay, please leave right now while we 468 00:34:04.640 --> 00:34:07.599 do our work. Well, I agree. I think it's going to be 469 00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:09.599 a made for TV movie and I can't wait to hear all the details of 470 00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:14.400 what happened and how they got him out. You got it, Amy, 471 00:34:14.440 --> 00:34:15.320 And like I say, you know, like I said over the weekend, 472 00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:21.159 is gonna take days. Hopefully, if there's no more bottlenecks, we get 473 00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:23.480 some good news and it'll happen later on today. All right, thank you 474 00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:28.159 so much, Tom Rivers for the information. Take care. Let's get back 475 00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:30.320 to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour news room. 476 00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:37.440 This September eleventh anniversary ceremony at Grands Ground zero has begun with the tolling 477 00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:42.480 of the bells. There has been a moment of silence twenty two years after 478 00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:46.000 the terror attacks, and from here they're going to read all of the names 479 00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:50.920 of the twenty nine hundred and seventy seven people killed on nine eleven, two 480 00:34:50.960 --> 00:34:54.000 thousand and one. Ceremonies to mark the twenty second anniversary of the nine to 481 00:34:54.000 --> 00:35:00.320 eleven attacks are happening in the Southland.
