Comment on What You Should Do if You Accidentally Dialed 911 by Rich Murray

Rich Murray — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:19:48 +0000

Isn’t one of the purposes of 911 dispatching an officer in the case of a 911 hangup to assess the situation in case the caller is in an actual emergency and is not in a position to speak on the phone or is under duress and cannot give an honest answer that he/she is in trouble?
So, armed gunman breaks into house and homeowner calls 911. The call rings once and maybe is or maybe is not answered and the intruder forces the homeowner to hang the phone up under threat of gunfire. Dispatch calls the home back and intruder picks up phone ans tells dispatch it was an accidental dial. Police are not dispatched.
It’s a tough balance between not wasting police resources and ensuring public safety; however, I do not agree with this article’s suggestion (and potentially dispatch policy) that telling dispatch “everything is OK” should negate a check-in by an officer.

I would like to echo Jason’s comments and look forward to the adoption of the UDO so we can get down to work on fashioning a creative corridor that will compliment Raleigh’s Creative District.
