911 chief: We fumbled the call

Dane County’s 911 Center director admitted late Thursday that his agency made a mistake in fumbling a call from Brittany Zimmermann’s cell phone at about the time she was killed on April 2.

But after a month of internal investigation, the dispatcher who hung up on the call, after hearing nothing, remains on the job without disciplinary action, and the agency has made no changes in policy, training or procedure, director Joseph Norwick acknowledged.
