JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – 911 systems across Mississippi and Louisiana were down Thursday afternoon, authorities said.

The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency said AT&T was reporting damage to some of its fiber optic lines and that was affecting 911 services across the state.

“We are assessing now as crews for AT&T are on the ground making repairs,” agency spokesperson Scott Simmons said.

“The state of Mississippi is in close contact with AT&T. AT&T crews are working to assess the damage and restore service as quickly as possible,” said Gov. Tate Reeves (R-Miss.).

“We’re aware of service issues for some customers in areas of Mississippi and Louisiana. Additional information will be provided as soon as it’s available,” an AT&T spokesperson said in an email.

Mike Steele, spokesperson for the Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, said the agency “is standing by if there are any requests for and there have been no requests for local support from our parishes at this time.”

“Nothing I’ve seen indicates a cyberattack,” Steele said.

The Emergency Communications Center for New Orleans said on their social media page that the outage was due to the cutting of a 911 “fiber line.”
