Just after 9 a.m. on April 19, 1995, a massive truck bomb
exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
The blast collapsed the north face of the nine-story building,
instantly killing more than 100 people and trapping dozens
more in the rubble.
Emergency crews raced to Oklahoma City from across the
country, and when the rescue effort finally ended two weeks
later the death toll stood at 168 people killed, including 19
young children who were in the building’s day-care center
at the time of the blast.
