    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Massachusetts’ 911 system is down statewide, according to a post on X from the Boston Fire Department.

    The State 911 Department is aware the 911 system is “experiencing a disruption” and also asked residents to use the direct line for their local police instead, and to limit calls to emergencies only, the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety and Security said on X.

    “CALL local Public Safety business line directly if you or others are having an emergency.

    During a news conference discussing public safety for Friday’s parade to celebrate the Boston Celtics’ 18th NBA Championship, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said: “Never a dull moment, we just wanted to start actually with a notification that currently the statewide 911 system is down and calls are not going through.”

    The mayor said the city has been in contact with the state and with “all of the relevant officials to work on getting this resolved.”

    “There’s lots of information out there but we will, we need to be covering this outage in the 911 system first,” Wu continued.
