New DNA testing has identified human remains recovered years ago from the World Trade Center wreckage to be those of a flight attendant and passenger from American Airlines Flight 11, the first hijacked plane to crash into a tower on September 11, 2001.

Officials overseeing the recovery of human remains at the World Trade Centre site are to recommend expanding the search to several nearby roads.

MORE bones believed to belong to September 11 World Trade Centre victims were found as New York continued searching underground areas that were apparently overlooked during the excavation years ago.
