OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - The names of 168 people killed in the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building were read in a solemn ceremony on the 14th anniversary of the nation's worst domestic terrorist attack.

More than 300 people gathered Sunday in cold, windy weather at the Oklahoma City National Memorial to observe the anniversary of the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

Survivors of the bombing and families of some of the 168 people killed read the names at the memorial where the building once stood.

The Rev. Tom Ogburn described the site as holy ground and said the bombing hurt many but did not break their faith.
