Dial 9-1-1 only for an emergency. An emergency may be a crime in progress, a crime that has just occurred, a serious car accident, or any suspicious activity that may turn into a
crime in progress. A fire or medical problem is also a 9-1-1 emergency.
Do not dial 9-1-1 for non-emergencies.
The 9-1-1 phone lines need to be available when a true emergency happens. If a 9-1-1 line is busy with a non-emergency call, then that phone line will not be available for the next emergency call.
