CANBERRA, Oct 7 (Reuters) - People living or working above the 13th floor should own a parachute so they can escape if their building is attacked, a former top Australian policeman said. "I just think anyone who works above the 13th floor, which is the limit that the fire brigade ladders can reach, needs to seriously consider something like that," former Victorian state police chief commissioner Kel Glare told Australian radio. "They may not lead to a successful escape but the chances are a hell of a lot better than staying in a burning or bombed building."

Glare said many of the people killed in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Centre towers in New York could have been saved if they had some means of escape . : . 10/07/05 03:06 ET
