Now the AP says he was 6. Either way... a sad story. :( Lots of conflicting details so hopefully they will be sorted out in the days to come.

I'm a little ticked that Anderson left the air for a repeat of the 9pm Larry King. Not a good call by CNN

Actually that Larry King was taped in advance... it was supposed to air at 9pm but never did because of breaking news.

MSNBC and FNC are back to tape at Midnight as well.

The coverage was getting a little reptitive... and it is late at night. No more information is likely til morning.

I read this morning that a 6 year old was dead on arrival to the hospital, and there is another 8 year old injured. :cry: Also, the accident occurred 33 years to the day after a crash at Midway that killed 45 people, two of them on the ground.
