Did 911 Hang Up on Buffalo Supermarket Call During Shooting?

Did a 911 operator hang up on the assistant manager of Buffalo’s Tops Supermarket during last weekend’s deadly mass shooting? Latisha Rogers says she hid behind a customer service desk and called 911 as the gunman stalked the aisles. She says the operator told her not to whisper, before hanging up on her. Erie County Central Police Services confirmed that “the individual who took that call is now on administrative leave pending a disciplinary hearing.”

[@cpmow831]

It seems to be a pretty stressful job which probably is deficient in human relations.

*What is the Gospel?* The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Romans 10:9 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. JESUS CHRIST can come anytime! REPENT OF YOUR SINS Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS

It is also crazy for people to just believe this happened without any proof. Maybe wait till you hear the tape to see if it actually happened. I have a feeling the 911 call did not happen how she said it did, but I will wait till I ear the tape to make a judgement.

I've also been in a situation where a 911 Operator did not take my concerns seriously. Around midnight, I was hiding with my sibling, under the impression that someone was stalking the perimeter of my house. Although it turned out to be a false alarm, the operator's responses and tone made it clear that she didn't think my situation was a concerning matter. That's the only time I've called 911 intentionally, so my impressions thus far don't give me a lot of confidence if something terrible were to actually happen.

[@Ted_Sheckler]

since it was an admitted "false alarm", sounds like the dispatcher not taking you seriously was warranted, right? Maybe you were sending red flags that made the dispatcher not believe you.

[@Ener-G]

@@Ted_Sheckler That's a fair point, and I'll never know for sure. Still, I was an adult by then and significantly distressed in that situation. I definitely didn't say, "There's someone trying to break into my home," but regardless it seems bizarre that the operator responded my distress so nonchalantly. I only hope that I just happened to call at the exact wrong time. Perhaps she was a great responder most of the time, but in those few minutes something had her off her game.

Bro this reminds me of the time I went to the emergency room in extreme pain and I could barely speak because of how much pain I was in, and the front desk lady was yelling at me to speak up and then she just told me to write down what was bothering me. It was the most infuriating and degrading thing that has ever happened to me the way she treated me. If you're going to work in these fields you have to have some compassion

I watch a lot of true crime and I’ve heard some of the most disgusting operators berate people who need empathy the most. The one that stands out to me is the women who drove into floodwaters unknowingly and drowned because she couldn’t unlock her doors. Operators need to be held criminally responsible for this type of behavior. This is the last voice some of these poor people hear and it’s a disgrace that it’s such a heartless one. Empathy should be a core requirement for this job.

It's such a horrible feeling. I had a terrible experience with a 911 operator. I was 17 and my neighbors kept on coming onto our property, harassing me about a situation that had nothing to do with me or my family and my parents weren't home. My mother told me to call the police, I did and the 911 operator asked me of my neighbors were white, I said yes and she didn't send the police. This was in Alexandria, VA (Fairfax County).
