Another article on the incident said there's a chance that the wrong emergency code was sent to the CERT team, and that's why they took off the wrong direction.
Investigators are still reviewing how and why the initial misdirection occurred. One possibility being reviewed is a transponder mix-up, or a transponder code being used for the wrong congressional leader, said the people familiar with the events.
