# 4115 A Matter of Life and Death

Question

See prior question. We had recently a case of a terrible car accident in our city and besides 911, Hatzalah was also called since they are much faster. Sadly there was already a fatal casualty and we were debating when calling Hatzalah if we have to inform them about the fatality since there are members who are also Cohanim. Did we have to tell them?

Answer

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit”a opinion is that since you are dealing with the saving of life, the faster any help arrives is most essential and crucial regardless whether they are Cohanim or not.
