(LEX 18) — The Jessamine County Sheriff's Office posted on social media that AT&T is updating its phone system and that anyone with their service cannot call 911.

The post from the sheriff's office states that it is not a dispatch issue. The office adds that they will alert everyone if they are notified about a time frame regarding when service will be restored.

A post from Kentucky Baseball on X also alerted fans to the issue, asking that those who attended today's game bring cash for portable concessions stands. They cited "AT&T internet outages" as being the issue.

LEX 18 reached out to AT&T and they responded saying, "We’re working as quickly as possible to restore wireless service to customers in parts of Kentucky due to multiple fiber cuts. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate the patience of our customers."
