Update – The 911 problems in eastern ND have been fixed. Systems have been working since 12:53 pm Tues May 9.

Previously:

Tuesday May 9, State Radio dispatchers and other public service answering points were notified about callers experiencing connectivity issues while using 9-1-1 from areas across eastern North Dakota. Those using 9-1-1 have reported calls being dropped or being notified that all circuits are busy. Callers are being asked, if possible, to text 9-1-1 or use the State Radio administrative line at 701-328-9921 if they are experiencing connectivity issues.

Technicians are working to resolve these issues and further updates will be provided once 9-1-1 connectivity has been fully resolved. This has not delayed dispatching emergency responders upon receiving information from callers.
