The phone system at Bowling Green Police Division is back in business this morning. A Code Red alert was sent out at 11:39 Wednesday evening, notifying residents that the phone system was down. Callers were asked to call the Wood County Sheriff’s Office for non-emergency calls, and 911 for emergencies.
BGPD Deputy Chief Adam Skaff said the police division has several redundancies in place for the phone system, to make sure callers always reach assistance. Efforts were still underway this morning to determine the cause of the outage.
