This hurricane tragedy highlights 911-system problems
When Hurricane Harvey hit with a fury not seen along the Gulf Coast in more than a decade, flooded roads stranded tens of thousands of people, including Wayne and Casey Dailey and their two sons. Their tragic ordeal is detailed in a New York Times Magazine story by journalist Sheri Fink, who talks with John Yang about why the emergency response system was overwhelmed.
