Reply to comment by Loki-Don in Chief: DC Police Staffing at Its Lowest in Decades by thinkcontext

None of those agencies (except Metro Transit) respond to 911 calls for service.

Metro Transit does but they're so short, they've started to pay MPD officers to work overtime at certain stations.

That’s simply not true. The websites for Cap Police and NPS Police even reference reaching them via 911.

DCs office of unified communications gets the 911 call and then depending where it is, routes the NPS, the Cap Police etc to the scene.
