Yet another highjacked plane is reported. At 10.10am United Airlines Flight 93, a 757 jet carrying 45 people highjacked out of Newark, NJ crashes in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, southeast of Pittsburgh. There continues to be speculation about this flight. The story goes that the passengers which were all forced together in the back of the plane and told to call their families to tell them that they were going to die, found out from their relatives about the events in New York and Washington. Realizing they were headed for a similar fate and there was nothing to lose, only lives to save, the passengers fought the terrorists and the struggle resulted in the plane crashing. Another more conspiracy-theory type story is that this plane was shot down by order of the government after they saw what happened with the first three highjacked flights. There are a few more theories out there about this flight. It is speculated that this plane was intended to be crashed into either the White House or Camp David.
At 10.28am the north tower of the World Trade Center collapses, killing hundreds more and releasing another tremendous cloud of debris and smoke, entirely covering downtown Manhattan.
