NY FDNY dispatchers tell off 911 operators 12-23-14

It appears the New York Daily News is the only one with this story and it’s a bit hard to believe. According to the article by John Marzulli and Ginger Adams Otis, two 911 operators who handle NYPD calls made “anti-police” remarks as the center learned of the killings of NYPD officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu on Saturday. One of the 911 workers is reported to have said the cops “deserved it”.

According to the Daily News, two FDNY dispatchers then got into a shouting match with the two people who made those remarks. Here’s some more detail from the article:

The 911 cop operators are members of District Council 37’s Local 1549.

A DC 37 spokesman said the union hadn’t heard anything about a shouting match.

There was no record of any disciplinary action or official intervention, the spokesman noted. 

“We are proud to wear the NYPD patch on our uniforms, and at this time, all our energy is going toward helping the families of the two officers who were tragically killed,” he added.
