A 911 dispatcher accused of bungling an emergency call from the manager of a Buffalo, New York, supermarket when a gunman burst into the store has reportedly been terminated.
The unidentified dispatcher had been on paid administrative leave since May 16 while supervisors investigated, CNN reported. While the shooting rampage was underway last month, the manager whispered into the phone to avoid detection by the gunman, but the dispatcher grew impatient and hung up."It was completely unacceptable," Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz said during a news conference May 18.
"She was yelling at me, saying, 'Why are you whispering? You don't have to whisper,'" Rogers told Buffalo News."And I was telling her, 'Ma'am, he's still in the store. He's shooting. I'm scared for my life. I don't want him to hear me. Can you please send help?' She got mad at me, hung up in my face."
