The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency issued an urgent phone alert to residents just before 3:30 p.m. warning of a “statewide intermittent 911 outage.”

The message advised people to contact local 9-1-1 centers on their non-emergency lines.

Bucks County officials urged residents to call 215-328-8500 if 9-1-1 is not working for them.
