New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced the identification on Thursday, along with New York City Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Jason Graham.
“The pain of losing a loved one in the September 11th terror attacks echoes across the decades, but with these three new identifications, we take a step forward in comforting the family members still aching from that day,” Adams said.
“As a former law enforcement officer who served our city on 9/11, I understand deeply the feeling of loss so many families have experienced.
“We hope the families receiving answers from the Office of Chief Medical Examiner can take solace in the city’s tireless dedication to this mission.”
The victims were identified as Ryan Fitzgerald of Floral Park, New York, Barbara Keating of Palm Springs, California, and an unnamed adult woman.
