(Montgomery Co., MD)  —  The 911 emergency call center in Montgomery County, Maryland is getting a lot of unwanted attention after an operator was caught sleeping on the job.  It happened just after midnight on April 4th.  A frightened woman called 911 because her husband was having difficulty breathing and was starting to turn blue in the face.  The emergency dispatcher finally woke up after more than five minutes of loud snoring on the other end of the line.  Other emergency personnel hopped on the line to help out the woman.  Officials have not released the name of the snoring dispatcher.
