(Via Upper Quarter Neighborhood Watch)
Effective Immediately:
Superintendent of Police Ronal W. Serpas has just announced the
following policy concerning use of the NOPD 9-1-1 Emergency System:
* If you wish to report a non-emergency issue, such as a property
crime or suspicious persons report, call 504-821-2222
* If you wish to report a situation involving immediate danger to
yourself or someone else, such as an assault or shooting, call 9-1-1
Chief Serpas stressed that calls to both numbers are categorized and
prioritized in the same manner, and that callers may request anonymity
when speaking with an operator at either line. However, only
incidents involving a threat to "life and limb" should be reported to
9-1-1, so as not to overwhelm the system's resources.
