ABC11 reported last week that Wake County EMS was experiencing a large volume of calls. Because of that, it's become a daily occurrence that there are some times when there are no ambulances available to answer calls in the Raleigh city limits.
Though summer is usually the busiest time for Wake EMS, Assistant Chief Brian Brooks said it has seen a historic surge in call volume.

Johnston County EMS also told ABC11 last month that it was responding to a record number of overall calls -- from an average of 80 to 100 a day. At the time, the small department also had 14 vacancies.
