NORRISTOWN PA – Montgomery County (PA) emergency dispatchers directed police units, firefighters and emergency medical responders within the past 24 hours to a variety of incidents. A selective list of their activity appears below.
The entries are taken from publicly available feeds supplied by the county Department of Public Safety.

It consequently is incomplete and is not intended to be comprehensive.
In most cases, the entries can be read as:
- Type of service (EMS = emergency medical services, Traffic = police, Fire = firefighters);
- Type of incident (vehicle accident, etc.)
- Location of incident (usually by closest intersection or landmark, and the name of the municipality)
