I'm no dispatcher but not a lot of decent English gets on a 911 NYC phone call. This was a house full of illegal Bangladeshis jammed into illegal apartments and cubicles in the basement. This two-family home had 5 families and a boat load of singles.

are you kidding me?????????? what the hell does race have to do with it - can you imagine the pain and suffering the operator is going through right now??? what is wrong with you people - in reading these posts you would think most of you living under a rock - these operators are overworked and overwhelmed along with dealing with false alarms - like a previous poster states in emergencies people get all excited and may have transposed the numbers given to the operator - my God - pray for all of them involved - regardless of color-ethnicity, etc.
