On Sept. 11, each year, the names of the victims killed on 9/11 are read aloud. They’ll do it again on Friday, and when they do, Global News reporter Mike Armstrong will wait for one name in particular — the one he shares, right down to the middle initial — Michael J. Armstong. Michael Armstrong was 34-years-old and worked in electronic trading on Wall Street. He worked on the 104th floor of the North Tower, above the impact zone. He was able to call several members of his family, but all anyone could hear was static. They hope he heard their voices. Global’s Mike Armstrong has more.
