Wireless 911 calls may not work

AT&T has told Marion Police Department and Crittenden County's central dispatching center that wireless calls to E-911 may not go through today due to problems with AT&T's communication system.

Marion Police Chief Ray O'Neal says anyone who dials 911 and does not get an immediate connection should hang up and call the local emergency number (270) 965-3500.

"They tell us that AT&T is working to resolve the issue," O'Neal said.
