Oklahoma Mourns 10th Anniversary
- Rocky!
OKLAHOMA CITY- The day is April 19, 1995 and at 9:01 A.M. people are starting to settle in for work at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. Suddenly at 9:02 A.M. a loud blast, people don't know what's wrong. They don't know that their workplace has been hit by a bomb. People are screaming, cars screeching, and glass shattering.
This was the scene 10 years ago in downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. 168 people died that day.
Past U.S. President Bill Clinton and U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney attended the 10th year anniversary ceremony at the Oklahoma Bombing Memorial. There, the crowd participated in 168 seconds of silence to remember the 168 victims of that tragic day.
