Nearly 24 years after the September 11 terrorist attacks, New York authorities have identified three more victims through advanced DNA testing. Among those identified are Ryan Fitzgerald, a trader working at the World Trade Center, and Barbara Keating, who was aboard one of the hijacked planes that struck the Twin Towers. A third victim was identified but remains unnamed at the family's request. Officials say breakthroughs in forensic science and continued efforts by investigators have helped provide long-awaited answers to families still seeking closure from one of the deadliest terrorist attacks in modern history.
