Port Authority police spokesman Joe Pentangelo says Merkel visited the Sept. 11 memorial site at the World Trade Center on Saturday. Inspector Ron Shindel, who speaks German, greeted Merkel and presented her with the World Trade Center memorial flag and a police challenge coin. Merkel told police officials she plans to fly the flag at the chancellery, which is home to Germany's federal government.
A spokesman for the Permanent Mission of Germany to the United Nations didn't immediately respond to a message seeking comment.
