Reported accident turns out to be OnStar false alarm

By Howard B. Owens

Alabama Fire and Mercy EMS were dispatched to an Alabama location off Bloomingdale Road after OnStar contacted Genesee County Dispatch because a car indicted a right-side accident impact.

There was no air bag deployment, and the driver did not respond verbally to OnStar.

The first responder soon discovered the alarm was a malfunction in the vehicle. Alabama Fire and Mercy EMS were immediately canceled.
