9-1-1 Hang-ups
If you mistakenly dial 9-1-1 stay on the line! Don't hang-up or refuse to answer the call back that will most certainly follow. Let the operator know that you made a mistake. Hang-ups will initiate a police response if no one speaks or answers.
9-1-1 is an essential service to provide police, fire and ambulance response which may save a life.
When to Call 9-1-1
- a crime is being committed;
- a life is threatened or in danger;
- a fire is out of control.
What information does the call taker need?
- Phone number and civic address from where you are calling – the 911 system will display this information to the call taker but he/she will always ask you to confirm it.
- What happened?
- Where it happened (address if not from where you are calling)
- Is anyone injured?
Stay on the line, if it is safe for you to do so, while the call taker notifies the Emergency Service, additional details may be required.
