911 caller unhappy with EMT response

WILMINGTON — Police in Wilmington are looking for the gunman in a shooting death late Sunday night. It happened in the Nesbitt Court development off S. Second Street.

Twenty-one-year-old Dywaune Simpson was gunned down. His shooter is still at large.

A neighbor says she called 911. She feels more could have been done to save his life.

“I feel like the law enforcement and the EMTs — I don’t think that they did their job. The 911 operator wasn’t concerned with what I was telling her, that I was certified in CPR and she wasn’t listening to me. She wanted to know what was going on in the background.”

Police say the response was appropriate, but they welcome the witness to come forward with a specific complaint.

Meanwhile the search for the suspect continues.

If you have any information that will help police in their investigation call them at 343-3600.
