In today's WBFO brief, the Buffalo Bills drop their National Football League season opener, a Buffalo church expands its housing footprint on the city's East Side, the Buffalo Planning Board is asked to take a vote of confidence in Hertel Avenue businesses, and WBFO Disabilities Desk reporter Emyle Watkins hears from a family who explains how masks in schools may be a challenge for some kids, but a must for the safety of others.
Also, we recall reporter Michael Mroziak's story on this day 20 years ago, when flights at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport were allowed to resume following the 9/11 terror attacks. Then, we look back on the Attica Prison Riot 50 years later, first with WBFO's Mike Desmond recalling his quest for information on-site as a Courier Express reporter, then with an attorney who is still seeking justice and truth for many of the victims.
