An investigation by our media partners breaks down response times between life-threatening and non-life-threatening calls. Data suggests they're the longest in decades.
HOUSTON, Texas --It depends on why you're calling for help, but our partners at the Houston Chronicle report the city's police response times are the slowest they've been since the 1990s.
On the flip side, the Chronicle reports that when it is urgent, like when a life-threatening incident is in progress, it is often taking eight minutes or so for police to respond. That's twice as long as the Houston Police Department's goal for what is called a "Priority 1" event.
