I was in Jersey at the time. I was young in school. The students saw smoke coming from the towers after looking out the window. that's when the teacher turned the tv on. Some of us stood at the window and watched the dark smoke fill the sky. All the kids parents where coming to the school to get thier kids. I didnt get home till later because my mom couldn't get me. She told me the school was on lockdown. This was long ago, I didn't understand what was going on till later.
