Dial 911 and Wait

Witnesses said children and others feared for their lives while a man walked around outside with a gun. Repeated calls to 911 went unanswered until Horry County police responded after the town's police didn't...

Residents heard a woman being beaten. They called police. One minute passed. And another. And another. And another.

A few wondered if they should enter the house themselves. Seventeen minutes later Horry County police showed up because the town's underpaid, overworked police didn't.
But you'll be damned if you come to the obvious conclusion, won't you, Bailey?
