When do I call 911 and when do I call the non-emergency line?
An emergency is any situation that requires immediate assistance from the police, fire department or ambulance. Examples include:
*A fire.
*A crime, especially if in progress.
*A car crash, especially if someone is injured.
*A medical emergency, especially symptoms that require immediate medical
attention.

Important: If you're not sure whether the situation is a true emergency, officials recommend calling 911 and letting the call-taker determine whether you need emergency help. All other non-emergency calls can be made to 509-535-9233.
