In Columbia, a weekend failure of Richland County’s 911 system due to a faulty circuit board disrupted calls for about 30 minutes. Dispatchers rerouted to sheriff and police admin lines while officials pursue fixes, noting no reports of unserved emergencies. County and city funded a consolidated 911 center last year with BellSouth customers contributing higher monthly fees.
