"9-1-1, What Is Your Emergency?"

In case of emergency, call 9-1-1 for immediate assistance. 

This is a free call, even from a pay phone. This emergency phone service is provided only for urgent situations such as burglary in progress, shootings, fires, traffic accidents with injuries, someone choking or having difficulty breathing, fighting or the display of weapons. 

It is not meant to be used for routine requests for service. 

This may prevent someone with a genuine emergency from reaching us quickly, so please use the 9-1-1 system with care. Don't waste time, call as soon as you think help is needed, that's what we're here for and every second counts. 

All areas of Rolling Meadows and the Northwest Suburbs are covered by 9-1-1 service. 

It doesn't matter if you live in the city or an unincorporated area; 9-1-1 will provide access to your local emergency agencies.
