Police Department - Emergencies
In the event you need the emergency services of the Irvine Police Department, please dial 9-1-1. Please remember that 9-1-1 should only be used for in-progress crimes and/or life threatening situations.

When you dial 911 for emergency assistance, the dispatcher will answer the phone and ask you questions about the emergency.
They are:

  • Your name
  • The address of the emergency
  • The telephone number you are calling from
  • A brief description of the emergency such as "An intruder is in my house," or "There is an accident at the intersection of Alton and Culver." 

Stay on the line until the dispatcher tells you it is ok to hang up. Dispatchers ask standard questions to help them make evaluations, decisions, and forward the necessary information to those responding to your call. Generally personnel are dispatched while the dispatcher is still on the line with you.  

For more information about police and emergency procedures, call the Irvine Police Department at 949-724-7200.
