Accidental Calls to 9-1-1

With the mandatory area code dialing in place since March 5, 2011, 9-1-1 is experiencing an increase in the number of callers who accidently call 9-1-1 and immediately hang up. Officials with 9-1-1 urge callers who accidently call 9-1-1 for any reason to stay on the phone and report it as a mistake.

When the 9-1-1 dispatcher receives a hang-up call, he or she must call back to find out if there is an emergency. If the caller does not answer, officers will be sent out to the location to check for a problem.
