4 days agoDay Around the Bay: SF's 911 System Briefly Has Difficulty With Cellphone Calls
San Francisco's 911 system faced issues with cellphone calls, which were resolved by 4 pm on Monday.
Patrolman Brendan Fayles responded to a report of a car crashing into a house on South Street on July 25 around 12:45 a.m. The crashed car had begun to ignite as Fayles arrived at the scene, so he smashed a side window and extricated the unresponsive driver from the vehicle through the window, police say. "Sir, wake up ... Can you hear me?" Patrolman Fayles can be heard saying in the video of the rescue. Shortly after, the entire vehicle was engulfed in flames, which Foxborough Fire later extinguished, police say.
