“This is why (standard) isn’t working right now,” the officer says in the video. “There is supposed to be another tower standing right here. I’ve never seen that. Holy cow. I mean it’s blown all the way over. But that is freaky when that happens. It came down like crazy in a bunch of pieces.”
We have no radio communication because we have no tower. The county tower has collapsed. Now it is even more important not to call dispatch unless you really need something. Because dispatch will be calling all first responders by telephone.
