It sounds like the door being kicked in was in slow motion or slow sound or something.

[allgood2000]

Most of the re-enactment from the time the robber kicks the door in to the time the music stops is in slow motion.

Well, that information is necessary for the police to identify the man. It was the heat of the moment, but it was still important to ask if the girl could describe him.

this dispatcher is nuts. ur brother has the knife, what?

[hookerdreamz]

Very smart little girl, very intelligent.

This is why don't live in the Dallas area

The dispatcher was a moron. She has had the training and had been on the job for some time prior to this call and she swore that the brother was the robber. She should have been fired for not trying to clarifying everything first.

[PeoplesWar]

I've asked that question a million times since Sept 11, 2001.

'If it had to happen to somebody, why did it happen to Eric? (my husband, daughter's dad.)

My friend Al is an actor, and he's done reenactments like this before. Not for 911. He wasn't even out of high school when 911 ended.

here's what would be a real find if it was here the original Pilot version of this segment.

WOW that was some intense call from that brave little girl.
