MD FD failed to respond to call

https://www.statter911.com/2019/08/07/pre-arrival-video-pgfd-fire-station-fails-to-respond-to-house-fire-across-the-street/

house fire was across the street from a volunteer fire station - near
Washington DC

I wonder how PG County 911 handles this? Maybe nowadays the volunteer
stations do not get dispatched to any calls unless they notify the 911
Center that there is a crew in the fire station

otherwise the crazy "scratched" concept comes into play - call gets
dispatched - no one responds in 5 minutes - dispatcher gives call to
next closest station - first station gets a "scratch"
