Woman Dies After Pulling Emergency Cord That Wasn't Connected to 911

The 91-year-old mother of 15 pulled the emergency cord after cutting her leg, which her family had previously told her would send a signal for help. The building management refers to the cord as a medical call system, but the cord is not connected to an alarm company and did not notify a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Instead, it lit a trouble light at the apartment office. No one noticed the light flashing and Landry bled to death in her apartment.
