What if I call 911 by mistake and hang up before the call is answered?
Normally, these calls will still ring into the 911 Center. If you hang up, the dispatcher will make an attempt to return your call and verify whether or not you have an emergency. The dispatcher will also dispatch an officer to your location to check your welfare.
