Small-business owner urges Seattle leaders to act now on public drug use and slow emergency response

Seattle business leaders are calling on city officials to address open-air drug use and slow emergency response times, citing cases where 911 calls went unanswered.

Matt Humphrey, a small-business owner, said he called 911 to report drug use near his shop but never saw police respond to the call.
