To Report Any Police, Fire, or Medical Emergency, 
Dial 911

Callers Should:

• DIAL 911. Please note: Cellular 911 calls may not always be routed to the NIU Police due to cellular tower 911 configurations.
• Stay on the line with the dispatcher.
• Provide the address of the building involved and your exact location. This is especially critical if you are calling from a cell phone.
• Provide a thorough description of the incident and individuals involved such as clothing, height, weight and direction of travel to ensure proper resources are dispatched.
• Do not hang up until the dispatcher tells you to do so.
