DescriptionBATON ROUGE, La. -- Someone at the scene of a paralyzing fall that Secretary of State Fox McKeithen suffered in his carport called off emergency medical services, causing a delay of more than a half hour in McKeithen getting treatment, according to a record of 9-1-1 calls.

The person's identity remains unknown, as the East Baton Rouge Parish Department of Emergency Medical Services has refused to release tapes of the three 911 calls concerning McKeithen.

McKeithen suffered a spinal cord injury that has left him unable to move from the neck down.
