Jackson MS had apt bld fire April 16 2021

https://www.jacksonfreepress.com/news/2021/may/05/massive-fires-show-weakness-911-jackson/

do you want to know what really happened?

I checked the Broadcastify tapes

dispatchers were not super busy per sound of police and fire radio
channels - from 943 am to 1030 am - there were just 1 or 2 police
calls and 1 or 2 EMS calls

PLUS

a working house fire at 3131 Cedar St at 1006 am

then the apt house fire at 1032 am

INTERESTING - the delay on the apt bld fire was reportedly 30 minutes

MY GUESS - 911 got slammed with calls on the 3131 Cedar St fire - at
the same time people were trying to report the apt bld fire - some got
busy signals - the calltakers probably mistook the one or two 911
calls that did get thru from the apt house as a supplemental report on
the house fire

Yikes

keywords - sorting out 911 calls - sorting out duplicate 911 calls -
handling simultaneous 911 calls
