Good Morning,

Please be advised all communication systems at OCME are currently down.  Please forward this information to local emergency management, and request for any suspicious deaths requiring OCME intervention to call (304) 767-1619 until further notice.

I will notify you once the issue has been resolved.

Thank you,
