NEW YORK (CBS/AP) ―
President Bush will visit New York City on Sept. 11 to mark the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks.
The president plans to visit all three sites where terrorists crashed hijacked planes, in Washington, Pennsylvania and New York, the White House said.
Bush has been going around the country with an anti-terrorism speech.
An observance is planned at Ground Zero in lower Manhattan, the site of the World Trade Center towers that were the first targets of al-Qaeda terrorists in 2001.
CBS 2 News and wcbstv.com will have extensive coverage of the fifth anniversary of 9/11.
