Description:
A major 911 outage impacted multiple states on Wednesday, raising alarms about emergency system vulnerabilities. Telecom company Lumen said the outage was caused by a third party installing a light pole, affecting service in four states. Outsourcing 911 systems means problems can spread beyond state lines through private providers. The FCC is investigating and experts call for increased modernization and regulation of the aging 911 system. The decentralized system with over 6,000 jurisdictions leads to varying equipment, budgets, and capabilities.

Five weeks into his studies, Connor was out with friends when he fell four metres from a platform and landed on his head.<br/><br/>Connor was unconscious and rushed to hospital where he spent three and a half weeks in a coma. When Connor became conscious he was non-verbal and unable to walk and spent nine months in rehabilitation. Connor was not able to leave Spain until May 2021 and continued his rehabilitation in the UK.<br/><br/>Less than four years on, Connor is walking and talking again and taking part in the London Marathon this weekend alongside his dad, Chris, 57.")
