On this day in history, February 16, 1968, first 911 call is made, emergency system fueled by shocking murder
The nation's first 911 emergency call was placed by an Alabama state politician on this day in history, Feb. 16, 1968.

The landmark moment came four years after the shocking unreported murder of a New York City woman proved to many Americans the need for a standard and easy-to-use system to call for emergency assistance.

"Senator Rankin Fite completed the first 911 call made in the United States in Haleyville, Alabama," writes NENA.org, the website of the National Emergency Number Association.

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, FEBRUARY 15, 1903, THE FIRST TEDDY BEAR GOES ON SALE

"The serving telephone company was then Alabama Telephone Company. This Haleyville 911 system is still in operation today."

Before the advent of 911, people had to make a direct call to local emergency services, a nearby police station or a firehouse, most likely after sifting through the pages of the phone book — a large tome in major metropolitan areas.

Kitty Genovese
A studio photo of Catherine "Kitty" Genovese, 28. No help was offered when she was knifed on Austin Street in Kew Gardens, Queens, in a crime that disgraced New York City. The shock over her murder helped lead to the creation of the 911 emergency phone number system.
They might also dial "0" for operator and ask to be connected to a local service.

It was an ineffective system. It was often a deadly system.

Kitty Genovese, 28, was attacked with a knife on the night of March 13, 1964. She bled to death in the stairwell of her Queens apartment, PBS documentary "Independent Lens" reported in 2017.

Police found that 38 people heard the woman cry for help, The New York Times reported after the murder.

Yet none apparently called emergency services — or those few who did try to call were unable to reach police or got no response.

There was no direct number or other system in place for people to report an emergency. The outcry was intense.

"While the history is a little more complex than that," PBS reports, "it’s true that the tragedy was one of the inspirations for the system we know today."

911 dispatchers
Denver Police dispatcher Raymond Rowland works at his station on Thursday, Nov. 1, 2018. The Denver Police Department is considering encrypting all of its radio channels, meaning the public will not be able to listen in via scanners as field officers communicate with dispatchers at the 911 center.
The 911 emergency phone number is now widely used across North America, and is synonymous with "distress" in both the United States and Canada.

It arose and still exists as the primary and largely effective system to reach emergency services in the United States without an official government mandate or federal law, though officials in Washington, D.C., did help encourage the system.

The National Association of Fire Chiefs recommended a universal emergency number for reporting fires in 1957.

A presidential commission got behind the concept of a universal number for all emergency situations in 1967.

Finally, "in November 1967, the FCC met with the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) to find a means of establishing a universal emergency number that could be implemented quickly," writes NENA.org.

"In 1968, AT&T announced that it would establish the digits 911 (nine-one-one) as the emergency code throughout the United States."

The 911 combination was chosen for a variety of reasons — two most notably.

One, it was easy to remember and quick to call, even on the rotary phones of the era.

Two, the 911 combination had not been used as an area code, service code or local exchange.

The phone number 911 was, in other words, unique to emergency services and has been ever since.

The proliferation of 911 across the country is a fairly recent phenomenon — shockingly recent to many observers.

Only half of Americans had access to emergency services by dialing 911 as recently as 1987, according to NENA.

Kitty Genovese murder
The 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese, which helped spark the creation of a 911 emergency phone number system, was still front-page news in New York City 31 years later.
"At the end of the 20th century, nearly 93% of the population of the United States was covered by some type of 9-1-1 service. Ninety-five percent of that coverage was Enhanced 911. Approximately 96% of the geographic U.S. is covered by some type of 911."

The first emergency phone number in the world was 999, introduced in London in 1937, according to World Population Review.

Los Angeles established an emergency line — 116 — in 1946, decades before the universal 911 number was established.

Three-digit emergency phone numbers now exist in most nations around the world.

 56 years of 911: The small town that revolutionized emergency response
"Hello?" answered Alabama Rep. Tom Bevill on Feb. 16, 1968, during the first-ever test call of the 911 emergency system that's now been in use for decades nationwide.

50 years 911 emergency number / 50 años numero de emergencias  911

The president of a rural telephone company took the initiative to establish the first 911 emergency system in a small northwest Alabama town exactly 50 years ago Friday.

At 2 p.m. on Feb. 16, 1968, in Haleyville, Ala., Speaker of the Alabama House Rankin Fite made the first 911 call -- from Haleyville Mayor James Whitt's office to U.S. Rep. Tom Bevill, who answered the test call with a "hello?" on a bright red phone in the police station.

The call was the very first use of the now-universal three-digit emergency number that quickly connects Americans in distress to dispatchers and first responders.

"It doesn't matter where you are from or where you are at -- 911 is the universal emergency phone number," Haleyville Chamber of Commerce President Mike Evans told UPI. "Personally, I think all Alabamians -- especially in Haleyville -- swell with pride knowing that the work and ingenuity to make this idea a reality came to fruition here."

After settling on the numbers "9-1-1" -- three digits that weren't already in use for any phone number or area code -- the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and carrier AT&T set out to build the first emergency phone system in Huntington, Ind.

Bob Gallagher, president of Alabama Telephone Co., read about the FTC-AT&T plan in the Wall Street Journal and decided it was Haleyville -- a town of about 4,000 residents located 65 miles northwest of Birmingham -- that should try the system first.

"Bob was a little offended because the independent telephone companies had not been included in the decision," Haleyville Mayor Ken Sunseri, James Whitt's son-in-law, told Alabama Newscenter. "He got with his inside plant manager, Robert Fitzgerald, and they evaluated the company's 27 phone systems and chose Haleyville as the site where it made sense to make the first 911 call."

After quick approval from Continental Telephone and the Alabama Public Service commissioner, Gallagher announced on Feb. 9, 1968, that the Alabama Telephone Company would make history.

Fitzgerald and his team traveled from Fayette to Haleyville, where they worked overnight throughout the following week to lay the foundation for the system that would revolutionize emergency response services -- and become a household number nationwide.

Nome, Alaska, was next to implement a 911 service on Feb. 22, 1968 -- and in March 1973, the White House's Office of Telecommunications issued a national policy statement encouraging nationwide adoption of 911, according to the National Emergency Number Association.

"I don't think that anybody realized the effect that it would have nationwide," Sunseri told UPI. "There's over 200 million 911 calls made yearly. When people are in need, whether they need police, fire, ambulance or medical, this is the first line they call in some of the worst times people have in their lives."

"In the decades since the first 911 call, emergency communications services have improved and expanded to better respond to accidents, disasters, public safety threats, health emergencies, and other life-threatening situations," the White House said Friday in a presidential message commemorating 911 Telecommunicators Day. "Today, 911 services are available to roughly 97 percent of the geographic United States. Advances in technology have made this system more widespread, precise, and efficient -- enabling dispatchers to provide rapid response and timely assistance when the difference between life and death can be only a matter of seconds.

"Though we rarely see these heroes, we witness their around-the-clock devotion, and we owe them our deepest gratitude and appreciation for all that they do."

Nearly five decades after it made history, Haleyville again found itself at the center of another advancement in 911 technology. Last October, it placed the first call of Alabama's statewide Internet protocol-based Next Generation 911 network.

"Alabama has always been on the forefront when it comes to 911," Winston County 911 Communications Director James Webb, whose uncle laid telephone line for the first 911 system, said. "We count that kind of a unique opportunity to be part of history being made again in the same place where it started 50 years ago."

To mark its role in history, Haleyville holds a "911 Festival" every year during the first weekend in June. The event remembers the historic call and celebrates its local first responders.

"Many of our local companies and employers are local families that stepped out with a spirit of adventure and were driven by a good idea and the desire to succeed," Evans said. "We like to think that innovation is not reserved for a special part of the country -- and not limited by the grandeur of the vision, but the lack thereof."
