Cassopolis, MI – A new short documentary spotlights Cass County’s 911 dispatchers, who took just 13 seconds to recognize an emergency and send help during a life-threatening crash in Edwardsburg, Michigan.
According to the Cass County Sheriff’s Office, the response was powered by RapidSOS technology, which instantly provided dispatchers with crucial information from an automatic crash alert — even though no one had called 911.
The seven-minute film, titled “13 Seconds: The Edwardsburg, Michigan Rescue,” highlights the coordination, training, and precision that allowed emergency responders to act with remarkable speed.
Sheriff’s officials praised their 911 team for their professionalism and credited the new system for improving community safety and response times. The department encouraged residents to watch the documentary, now streaming through RapidSOS’s official website.
“We’re incredibly proud of our dispatchers and grateful for the technology that helps us serve with precision and speed,” the Sheriff’s Office wrote.
