Attorney says problem not isolated in 911 calls
In a Michigan case a 911 operator questioned a Detroit woman who reported being shot in the head and an emergency crew arrived late. Attorney Geoffrey Fieger says the boy whose mother died and Lorraine Hayes are part of broader dispatch errors. The lawsuit targets Detroit dispatchers while an internal probe proceeds and labor groups back the investigation.
