Nationwide AT&T cellphone outage prevents emergency calls, some 911 centers say
A nationwide cell service outage is preventing some AT&T customers from making or receiving calls, including emergency calls, some 911 centers say.
The website DownDetector reported more than 38,000 AT&T outages as of 7 a.m. Eastern time, with the first reports coming in shortly after 4 a.m. The site also saw a smaller number of outages for Verizon and T-Mobile.
Some 911 centers in Virginia, North Carolina and Texas reported that the outages prevented people from making emergency calls from their cellphones. Customers were advised to use a landline for any calls, or find a cellphone that uses a different carrier.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
