Emergency Services
Please call 9-1-1 in case of emergency.
9-1-1 Dispatchers will ask a series of questions to each caller for the safety of emergency responders. Based on CDC guidelines, emergency responders may be wearing protective clothing (IMAGE) (such as a surgical gown or mask) for your protection and theirs. If the person is able to do so, they may be asked to meet first responders outside their residence after calling 9-1-1.
For non-emergency calls, the Police Department may initially handle by telephone. Please call (708) 352-2131 or 9-1-1. If an officer is not immediately available, staff will obtain your contact information and an officer will call you back as soon as possible.
