It's been 40 years since John Lennon was gunned down outside of his Dakota apartment building on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. This episode relives the final moments of the legendary member of the Beatles.
Alan Weiss, a producer at the time with WABC-TV, was in a motorcycle accident and brought to Roosevelt Hospital. But within minutes, Weiss would be at the center of one of the biggest stories of his career. You'll learn details of how he investigated Lennon's shooting while getting care in the emergency room.
Weiss also talks about getting the confirmation that Lennon died and how Howard Cosell broke that news to a national football audience.
