1997

 

Police officers in Los Angeles faced an incredible challenge last March when bandits turned automatic weapons on police and bystanders after a botched robbery in North Hollywood. The challenge was equally incredible for their dispatchers, who handled a career's worth of critical traffic in the space of 2 hours. This issue of 9-1-1 Magazine is respectfully dedicated to the LAPD dispatchers who handled this incident. Read their story on this web site. Photo: Glen Blevins
