The city medical examiner’s office plans to extract DNA from the latest remains to be recovered from the former Deutsche Bank building and try to match it against a database of the 2,749 people killed at the trade center on September 11, 2001, said a spokeswoman for the city medical examiner’s office.
Fire Department crews had inspected the building in the months following the attacks, but the new remains were found in recent weeks by crews doing a more thorough cleaning before construction workers begin dismantling the building in May.
