In New York, as of December 10th, 2001 - The death toll from the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center has been revised down to 3,050, the New York Office of Emergency Management said Saturday. The number of missing was put at 582, the number of confirmed dead was 487 and the number of death certificates issued was 1,981. It was initially estimated that as many as 6,500 were killed when two hijacked jetliners crashed into the twin towers.
