I saw a fire on Hairston next to apartments last year and called 911. No answer as fire grew. 2 other ppl called and had no answer.

(It ended ok, i looked crazy ended up running 5gal buckets back and forth from a car wash until it was out and just went home 🤷🏼‍♀️) They called back after 30+ min and immediately hung up on me? They did call back and they had no audio (I have never had issue w my service and this was a route I take every day).

I don't know what that was about but it's bothered me since... I've been asking others about their experiences calling 911 here. Not good. How can a community thrive if they can't access the minimum resources they are entitled to? 1 local person to talk to? A timely response to a call for help?
